Does Zend have something like {strip} in Smarty?

Smarty has a {strip} function:

{strip}
<table border='0'>
 <tr>
  <td>
   Hello world
  </td>
 </tr>
</table>
{/strip}

Which outputs:

<table border='0'><tr><td>Hello world</td></tr></table>

I also want to do this in Zend (to reduce the amount of bites send on each request), without installing Smarty.

However, I don't want to add code to every Layout / .phtml file, so a frontcontroller plugin would be nice.

Solution

  • Why not just use the same regex that Smarty uses. It's quite simple:

    function strip($str, $replace = ' ')
{
    return preg_replace('#\s+#', $replace, $str);
}
