This replaces all repeated spaces, newlines and tabs with a single space, or with a supplied string.
Note: If you want to strip blocks of template text, use the {strip} function.
Example 5-18. strip
<?php$smarty = new Smarty;$smarty->assign('articleTitle', "Grandmother of\neight makes\t hole in one.");$smarty->display('index.tpl');?>
where template is:
{$articleTitle} {$articleTitle|strip} {$articleTitle|strip:" "}
This will output:
Grandmother of eight makes hole in one. Grandmother of eight makes hole in one. Grandmother of eight makes hole in one.
