I think is problem may be more connected to HTML rather then php.
The issue I have is that I have a my sql db and in one of the colume in which there is a string like:
Testing 1 2 3but when I extract the variable all I see is :
Testing 1 2 3I also tried to use the "htmlspecialchars" command but it wont do anything so if you have any suggestions how the problem may be fixed please post.
Jump to PostHave you tested to see if htmlspecialchars() converts spaces to ?
If it doesn't you can try htmlentities()
It may also be faster to just use a string replace.
$str = str_replace(' ', ' ', $str);

$str = str_replace(' ', ' ', $str);Thanks
That helps a lot..
No problem, it's supposed to work like that ;-)
HTML for whatever reason condenses multiple spaces into one. To get it to keep its spacing (for an ASCII drawing or whatnot) use the < PRE > and < /PRE > tags (no spaces.
