Totaly remove spaces

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
Mar 03.2007

I have a form field and it has come to my attention that some people put spaces in the field. How can I totaly strip all spaces from a text string.
EG.

[code=php]$text = “A b cd e f g”;
stripspaces($text);
echo $text //Echos Abcdefg[/code]

How can I achieve this?

}
