I'm writing a WordPress plugin, and one of the features is removing duplicate whitespace. My code looks like this: return preg_replace('/\s\s+/u', ' ', $text, -1, $count); I don't understand why I need the u modifier. I've seen other plugins that use preg_replace and don't need to modify it for Unicode. I believe I have a default in...
