<cfset string = rereplace(string,"( +)"," ","all")>

I am having a senior moment and can't for the life of me figure this
dumb
thing out. I am trying to remove all "extra" spaces from a string but
leave
the single space there. Example:
var="this has many extra spaces" and return with "this has
many extra spaces"
