Remove ALL spaces in a string

[Anon]

Is there a simple function that strips all spaces in a string, so

$str = "United Kingdom"
would become $str = "UnitedKingdom" ?

I could manually copy stuff over to temporary variables, but I was wondering if PHP had a quicker way.

Thanks,

Mike

$str = strreplace (" ", "", $str); as seen in http://php.net/manual/function.str-replace.php

Oops.. should be str_replace

I normally use ereg_replace(" ","",$var);
It works fine and fast.
