Looking for a small php function

I'm looking a function like this;

our_function("word1 word2");

result : "word1+word2"

Thanks.

 

So you want to replace spaces with plus signs?

$text = preg_replace('/\s+/', '+', $text);

PHP:

 

Yes, this is. worked. thanks.

Rep added.

 

I would recommend str_replace for such a simple operation. It has simplier functionality, bit it is much faster than preg_replace:

$text = str_replace(' ', '+', $text);

PHP:

 

I'm well aware of that (and I was almost sire someone would pick up on that), but I decided to use preg_replace() to replace multiple spaces with just one plus sign.

 

nico, I understand your point, it's OK, it depends on what he needs. I've just provided another solution for his task.

About multiple spaces: it seems he needs to encode urls (' ' => '+', '&' => '%26' etc.) so the best solution for that should be

$text = urlencode($text);

PHP:

 

Wow. That's pretty smart. I am very impressed.
