[RESOLVED] ASCII only OR preserve spaces?
Hello all. I'm looking for a PHP script which will remove all but ASCII characters. The following script would be useful, except for the fact that it takes out spaces as well:
PHP Code:
php
$string = "This is some text and numbers 12345 and symbols !£$%^&";
$new_string = ereg_replace("[^A-Za-z0-9]", "", $string);
echo $new_string;
// returns: Thisissometextandnumbers12345andsymbols
Any help is appreciated.
Re: ASCII only OR preserve spaces?
Just add a space and a tab and any other whitespace characters to the character class.
PHP Code:
$string = "This is some text and numbers 12345 and symbols !£$%^&";
$new_string = ereg_replace("[^a-zA-Z \t]", "", $string);
echo $new_string;
