Thanks!
I am just getting to the point of testing saving data and trying to cleanup
junk I attempt to save.
Basically the app I went thru all the fields in forms and all of them all I
want to allow is words and numbers so paranoid clean works but the forms are
serialized so I have to use clean for that?
Occasional email or url but the validation will take care of that or do you
still need to check that data?
Little lost on the whole sanitize...make the data safe to save, but when
reading the cookbook
'odd_spaces' => true,
'encode' => true,
'dollar' => true,
'carriage' => true,
'unicode' => true,
'escape' => true,
'backslash' => true
I have no clue what these would or would not beused for under what
condition.
Thanks again
Dave

preg_replace('/\s\s+/', ' ', $str)
But, if you have a single whitespace character other than space (eg.
tab), it'll be retained.
