[SOLVED] stripslashes

[Clancy19]

Does stripslashes eliminate spaces? and how do i properly use stripslashes?

 

[mikesta707]

it does as it name implies. it strips slashes from a string. for example

<?php
$str = "Is your name O\'reilly?";

// Outputs: Is your name O'reilly?
echo stripslashes($str);
?>

 

btw, googlek, and php.net are your friends. if you want to eliminate all spaces (Ie " ") then you want to use string replace, like so

$newString = str_replace(" ", "", "Hello My name is Mikey!");
//output: HelloMyNameisMikey!
