I noticed I forgot to put my trim()'s in my form inputs for an admin area, and
dreaded coding them all in. Cause there's lotsa forms.
So I did this up and it seems to work well:
<!--- Output dirty fields --->
<cfloop list="#FORM.fieldnames#" index="thisfield">
<cfoutput>#FORM[thisfield]#</cfoutput><br />
</cfloop>
<!--- Clean all formfields --->
<cfloop list="#FORM.fieldnames#" index="thisfield">
<cfset FORM[thisfield] = Trim(FORM[thisfield])>
</cfloop>
<!--- Output clean fields --->
<cfloop list="#FORM.fieldnames#" index="thisfield">
<cfoutput>#FORM[thisfield]#</cfoutput><br />
</cfloop>
<cfabort>
I can run that right before my inserts, and bingo, done! I guess you could turn
it into a cfc, send in the form, send it back out cleaned, maybe do more types
of cleaning than just trim().
Anyway, thought I'd share. It seems quite a bit easier than coding in the
trim()s. I've tried to think of some gotchas and none come to mind.
