title: Remove excess whitespace from within a string
body: <p>I receive a string from a database query, then I remove all HTML tags, carriage returns and newlines before I put it in a CSV file. Only thing is, I can't find a way to remove the <strong>excess</strong> white space from <em>between</em> the strings.</p>
  
  <p>What would be the best way to remove the inner whitespace characters?</p>
