[SOLVED] replace space character problem

[maddogandnoriko]

I am trying to replace space characters returned in short an html string with nothing to help me build a regex statement. I tried this with no joy:

$thtml = str_ireplace(' ','',$thtml);

 

and here is the string:

 

{"links_existed":{1958300:{"id_str":"1958300", "filename":"bw.0102.part1.rar", "size":"104857600", "download_url":"http://depositfiles.com/files/1958300"}, 1958303:{"id_str":"1958303", "filename":"bw.0102.part2.rar", "size":"104857600", "download_url":"http://depositfiles.com/files/1958303"}, "ve4w82ro7":{"id_str":"ve4w82ro7", "filename":"DFManagerSetup.exe", "size":"1063760", "download_url":"http://depositfiles.com/files/ve4w82ro7"}}, "links_deleted":{1493393:{"id_str":"1493393", "filename":"Cap.iKA.part1.rar", "size":"104750000", "download_url":"http://depositfiles.com/files/1493393"}}}

Tried it without the i before replace?

 

Try this:

$thtml = str_replace(" ", "", $thtml);

Why do you want to remove the spaces from that string?

did just now, still no luck. Sounded like a good solution to me though.

Ken,

      I am new to regex and have a problem getting past the space characters. Ultimately I am trying to put a regex together to extract the good links and bad links into separate arrays, where the links vary in number.

This:

<?php
$x = '{"links_existed":{1958300:{"id_str":"1958300", "filename":"bw.0102.part1.rar", "size":"104857600", "download_url":"http://depositfiles.com/files/1958300"}, 1958303:{"id_str":"1958303", "filename":"bw.0102.part2.rar", "size":"104857600", "download_url":"http://depositfiles.com/files/1958303"}, "ve4w82ro7":{"id_str":"ve4w82ro7", "filename":"DFManagerSetup.exe", "size":"1063760", "download_url":"http://depositfiles.com/files/ve4w82ro7"}}, "links_deleted":{1493393:{"id_str":"1493393", "filename":"Cap.iKA.part1.rar", "size":"104750000", "download_url":"http://depositfiles.com/files/1493393"}}}';
$z = str_replace(' ','',$x);
echo $z . "<br>\n";
?>

 

works fine.

 

Can you post more of your code?

I took a closer look at the html and it is not space characters, it is return characters. My apologies. And thank you for helping me find the problem.
