Примеры

Пример #1 A ctype_space() example

<?php
$strings 
= array('string1' => "\n\r\t"'string2' => "\narf12"'string3' => '\n\r\t');
foreach (
$strings as $name => $testcase) {
    if (
ctype_space($testcase)) {
        echo 
"The string '$name' consists of all whitespace characters.\n";
    } else {
        echo 
"The string '$name' does not consist of all whitespace characters.\n";

A function I wrote last night was fairly flexible in terms of detecting whitespace, and even took into account the pesky non-breaking spaces / zero-width spaces further up the Unicode alphabet.

The benefit here was being able to isolate and identify specific Unicode indices based on their subrange.

<?php
   
//    Returns TRUE if the ASCII value of $string matches a registered whitespace character.
    //    *    This includes non-breaking spaces, zero-width spaces, and any unicode values below 32.
    //    *    $string: Character to identify. If string extends past one character, the value
    //        is truncated and only the initial character is examined.
   
function is_whitespace($string){
       
//    Return FALSE if passed an empty string.
       
if($string == "") return FALSE;
       
       
$char    =    ord($string);
       
       
//    Control Characters
       
if($char 33)                        return TRUE;
        if(
$char 8191 && $char 8208)    return TRUE;
        if(
$char 8231 && $char 8240)    return TRUE;
       
       
//    Additional Characters
       
switch($char){
            case 
160:    // Non-Breaking Space
           
case 8287:    // Medium Mathematical Space
               
return TRUE;
                break;
        }
        return 
FALSE;
    }
?>

thanks to gardnerjohng, but a had some problems with non-breaking spaces in this function.

I added 2 more cases for this: 
case 0xC2
case 0xA0

After this modification non-breaking spaces in my test code were successfully detected.
