clarencek Posted July 1, 2006 Share Posted July 1, 2006 Hi, I'm a bit new at php and need help with some string manipulation.I'm getting a variable out of my database with this call: $t_city = $row['t_city']; Basically $t_city = "New York". What I want to do is manipulate the string such that it becomes "New+York".I was trying this, but it doesn't seem to work:$t_city = str_replace(\' \',\'+\',$t_city);What am I doing wrong?
