replace() inj class String is intended to to replace
a character with another.
If you want to replace spaces with an empty string
you have to write your own function like this:
public String removeBlanks(String aString) {
StringBuffer mResult = new StringBuffer();
StringTokenizer mTokenizer = new StringTokenizer(aString, " ");
while (mTokenizer.hasMoreElements()) {
mResult.append(mTokenizer.nextToken());
}
return mResult.toString();
}
P.S.: This is a java question, not a tomcat question.
