another newbie question! :)

Hi there again.. i also was wondering about replacing variables in a
script.

say i have something that calls up:

1558 chestnut ave.

how would i change the spaces to + like:

1558+chestnut+ave


i would be calling it up from a sql database. then posting it with an
echo function like:

echo('<font size="2" face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"><b>' .
$row['company'] . '</b>' . '<br>' . $row['address'] . '<br>'
..$row['city'] . ' ' . $row['state'] . ', ' . $row['zip'] . '<br>' .
'<a href="http://' . $row['website'] . '">' . $row['website'] .
'</a>' . '<br>' . $row['description'] . '</font></li></p>');

and the address would be the one i need changed.

Thanks so much again for the direction!

At first glance str_replace() would be the most efficient manner,
however you may also be after urlencode() depending what else you plan
to do with the string.
