[SOLVED] remove spaces and/or hyphens from a string

[simonp]

I'm getting a sort code input from a text box but people are typing it in different ways eg:

 

40-21-20

40 21 20

 

How can I strip away hyphens and spaces from this string so I just get:

 

402120

 

Thanks

if you ALWAYS want to do this on the string, just use str_replace function

 

$string = str_replace("-","",$string)

$string = str_replace(" ","",$string)
