I'm sorry, the code is $item = "DVD player: $53.92";
$item2 = str_replace(" ", "", $item);
$item3 = str_replace("$", "", $item2);

The T_CONSTANT_ENCAPSED_STRING error usually means that you forgot a ; after some line in your code. Your use of str_replace is correct if your goal is to remove the spaces and $.

try $item = "DVD player: $53.92";
$item2 = str_replace(' ', "", $item);
$item3 = str_replace('$', "", $item2); the single quotes will stop the $ from being resolved.

Sorry, in my last post I didn't catch the $ in the double quotes (I ran the code and it worked for me). jatar is correct, and you can also use double quotes if you escape the $ with \. So the last line would be: $item3 = str_replace("\$", "", $item2);
