Category: None Group: None >Status: Closed Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Anibal Jodorcovsky (anibal2) Assigned to: Richard Laager (rlaager) Summary: Strip Whitespace in Request Fields Initial Comment: I can't seem to add the following buddy to my gaim list: jrobinsonIMS7308 When I try to add this buddy I get a popup window with the title "Unable To Add" and the body of the dialog box (with a Close button) says: "Could not add buddy jrobinsonIMS7308 because the screen name is invalid. Screen names must either start with a letter and contain only letters, numbers and spaces, or contain only numbers." However in the dialog box you can see a space between the 8 and the word "because". Check the attached file for a display. I found the problem! I am cutting/pasting the buddy name from Thunderbird. I'm cutting pasting by just doing double-click on the word. It seems it's picking up something at the end that I can't see. I would suggest that the window that's taking the buddy name ignore white spaces and control characters that might appear at the beginning/end of the name. It's quite confusing since the message looks ok and the buddy name looks ok, yet you still get that popup window. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Luke Schierer (lschiere) Date: 2007-04-20 11:01 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=28833 Originator: NO As we are closing this tracker, please submit any feature request that is still valid to http://developer.pidgin.im.
