FN> Hey,

FN> On an Oct 25 thread, someone asked how to remove trailing spaces.
FN> The response was $Value =~ s/\s+$//.

FN> Question.

FN> 1. The string upon which this operation was made is on $_ correct?

no - $Value.

  $Value = 'foo    ';
  $Value =~ s/\s+$//;
  $Value eq 'foo';


FN> 2. If I've made the assignment $tempstring = substr($_ ,0,20) how do I
FN> remove trailing spaces from $tempstring?

so do $tempstring =~ s/\s+//;


hth,
daniel
