removing whitespace from a string

[rjonesX]

I tried preg_replace("\s+"," ", $oldstring);

but that isnt really working for me - it gives me an error...

any ideas?

Your regular expression is flawed, but easy to fix:

preg_replace("[b][COLOR=red]/[/color][/b]\s+[b][COLOR=red]/[/color][/b]"," ", $oldstring);

All you needed is the expression delimiters.
