[FIXED] How to convert a number of spaces(if more than one) to single dash using PHP

Issue

I can convert Space to dash.

$string = str_replace(' ', '-', $string);

But I want to convert a number of spaces; two, three, four, five, six or soon.. spaces into single dash

into -

Solution

Try this regex using preg_replace

$string = preg_replace( '!\s+!', '-', $string );
