strip spaces from string using smarty

Question

I am new to smarty.

I want to know how to remove all white-space characters from a given string in Smarty?

I have a string like "this is my string". The output should be "thisismystring".

How can I do this?

Solution 1

From the documentation:

{$YourVariable|replace:' ':''}

Solution 2

anything between strip, all spaces will be removed.

 {strip}{/strip}

As far as I'm concerned, that only removes trailing spaces.

This will not do what he wants: smarty.net/docs/en/language.modifier.strip.tpl

they have rtrim and ltrim in smarty phk.tekwire.net/demo/Smarty_xref.php5/nav.html?_functions/…

[mishmash]

I don't see a reference to rtrim/ltrim in the official Smarty docs. But if they behave like trim functions usually do (remove whitespace or other chars from beginning or end) it still would not do what he wants. :P

@vanneto he wants to remove trailing spaces only

[mishmash]

I quote: "I have a string like "this is my string". The output should be "thisismystring"." That string doesn't even have trailing spaces. Next time, read the question please.

the first comment made me confuse, i thought he is the questionnaire and he's is concerned about removing trailing spaces now! my bad
