string input...with white spaces?

My memory's fuzzy, so if you can just tell me how to input a string, and have C include the white spaces, I can get on with my project.

Until then, I'll just fiddle with it with a one word string array.

If that isn't coherent enough, C usually cuts off string input eg: scanf ("%s", string1); at \0 characters, or white spaces. I'd like to include the white spaces, so that the input Hello World does not get cut off and recorded as Hello.

Thanks!

Check the FAQ.

I'd like to do it with scanf, if possible.

>I'd like to do it with scanf, if possible.
Why? scanf is unsafe, if you make it relatively safe it becomes complex, debugging its mysterious problems would cause a Tibetan monk to scream obscenities, and there are far better alternatives that are easier to use. So again, why?

I'm not sure...well, could I use 'gets' instead?

You're going from bad to worse. Please read the FAQ. Or this one on gets. Or this one on scanf. Or the ones they reference.

You could, but it wouldn't be any better. How about fgets?
