Are you sure CI is doing that IN the database, or is it just that's what it looks like when you output it in HTML? In HTML, a series of more than 1 spaces gets truncated to a single space unless you use the HTML entity for a space when you output it. This is basic HTML and doesn't have anything to do with PHP or CI.

Code:

"    hello"

will print as

Code:

" hello"

with a single space in HTML. If you want more spaces you have to use the HTML entity for a space.

You can try this with pure HTML and see.

Code:

<span>      a span    with     multiple spaces</span>

are you using any validation rule which doing this wrongly?

not i dont modify any rule in the CI or HTML.. the weird is the issue happen when the record is insert in the database... i make the calls using rest service, is posible for that?
