Getting rid of blanks spaces in arrays

[raisinlove]

So I generate table rows containing images whose names are listed in an array located in an extrenal text file. So far, that works fine. But I would also like to include descriptions for each image. The problem is that my output produces a space and carriage return after each instance where the image name (from the array list) appears. Someone suggested the following for my code:

trim($description)

and

preg_replace("/\s/", "", $description)

I tried both of these by themselves and together, yet I still get a space in my output!

What is going on here?

Please let me know if you need more details to help me out.
Thank you.

to remove multiple spaces or newlines at the end of a string, use following regexp:

<?
$type="ahooj nazdarek dasd as\n\n";
echo preg_replace(array("/\ {2,}/","/\n/"),array(" ",""),$type);
?>

"\ {2,}" means two or more whitespaces

Awesome! This is exactly what I needed! Thank you so much. I've been bashing my head against my keyboard all day 😉
