Need help for a function

I need a fucntion that takes out all whitespace from a string as well as \n and \t.
I'm a newbie.

Just loop through the entire array and copy anything that isn't whitespace.

Code:

---

int i, j = 0;
char array[SIZE] = "  Now is the  time  ",
    buffer[SIZE];

for( i = 0; i < SIZE; ++i ){
  if( !isspace(array[i]) ){
    buffer[j] = array[i];
    j++;
  }
}

---

Won't that just make an identical copy of the original array?

1st loop-
i = 0
array[0] = ' '
so no copy...

But on the 3rd loop
i = 2
array[2] = 'N'
buffer[2] = 'N'

See what I mean?

Not anymore, thanks for pointing that out Govt.

-Prelude

Code:

---

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>

void RemoveWhiteSpace(char *p);

int main(void)
{
        char str[] = "Remove\t\tall  white space\n and new lines";

        RemoveWhiteSpace(str);

        return 0;
}

void RemoveWhiteSpace(char *p)
{
        char *t;
        int found = 0;

        while (*p)
        {
                if (*p == ' ' || *p == '\t' || *p == '\n')
                {
                        t = p;        // use temp pointer to move characters

                        while (*t)
                        {
                                *t = *(t + 1);
                                t++;
                        }

                        found = 1;
                }
               
                if (!found)        // don't advance the pointer if we found a "filtered" character
                        p++;
                else                       
                        found = 0;
        }
}

I forgot to mention that my code will remove the whitespace from the *original* character array, where as Prelude's code will create a *new* character array.
