Html form field - remove spaces Javascript

Question

Is there a way to remove any spaces in a form field, the "onblur" solutions when i have googled it are not working for me. Is it anything to do with browser compatability? Im using IE10

You should show the code you've already tried.

Put this between your head tags:

<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
function removeSpaces(string) {
return string.split(' ').join('');
}
</script>

And this in your input tag:

onblur="this.value=removeSpaces(this.value);"

you can use this function to remove spaces, try it:

function removeSpaces(ch)
{
   ch = ch.replace(/\ /g,"");
   return ch;
 }
