Space trouble

Code:

---

int main()

{
        int sranje;
        char polje[30];
        int a,br=0,j=0;

        printf("Unesi: ");
        gets(polje);

        for(a=0;a<strlen(polje)+1;a++)
        {
                if(polje[a]==' ')
                {
                        br++;
        if(br>10)
        {
                polje[j]=polje[a];
                j++;
        }
                }
                else
                {
                br=0;
                polje[j]=polje[a];
                j++;
                }
        }
                puts(polje);
       
        scanf("%d", &sranje);
}

First of all, I wrote some of this and I don't really understand what I wrote. The thing is, I'm trying to remove spaces in the string. With this I managed to remove them by using

Code:

---

f(br>10)

---

, which I added, but what I dont get is this part

Code:

---

    else
                {
                br=0;
                polje[j]=polje[a];
                j++;
                }

---

so, if someone can explain this to me, I really need to understand this.

Some "style comments":

1. you should have a return statement at end of main, returning 0.
2. Do NOT use gets(something), use fgets(something, sizeof(something), stdin)

I don't see anything wrong with your "space removal", except that it leaves every tenth (11th?) space in the string with your br counter.

Not to mention #include <stdio.h>.

Why gets() is bad. http://faq.cprogramming.com/cgi-bin/...&id=1043284351
How to use fgets(), including stripping the (possible) newline. http://faq.cprogramming.com/cgi-bin/...&id=1043284385

puts() is okay, though. It's just gets() that's a problem.
