Ok I am so stumped.. I'm doing something stupid and I can't figure it out.. 
 
Here's the code: 
 
<?php 
 
$eml = 'hiddenemailadddress@hiddendomain.net                        ceo'; 
if (strpos($eml, ' ')) echo "yep, there are spaces\n"; //does strpos see the 
spaces? 
echo preg_replace('/\s/', '',  $eml); //WTF? Preg_replace does not? 
echo "$eml\n"; 
 
 
?> 
 
As you can see there are a bunch of spaces in that email address. I'm trying 
to use preg_replace to get rid of them. Strpos sees the spaces and the first 
echo statement is executed. The second echo prints nothing and the third 
prints the original $eml with nothing substituted. 
 
Can anyone see why the perl reg isn't seeing the spaces? 
 
Carl
