Perl string manipulation

[jared in ecs]

Anyone who can help?

I need to get rid of the spaces from the contents of a varible.

example:
$title= stumble from grace //after it was extracted from afile using substitution

i need it to be like:
$title= stumblefromgrace

i tried using :
$title=~ s/\s//;
but it did not seem to work

i tried using :

$title=~ s/\s//;

$title =~ s/\s//g;

I need to get rid of the spaces from the contents of a varible.

tr/ //d;

(This will leave tabs, newlines, and carriage returns alone, only removing spaces.)
