Nelson's response works in CF. In JS, just did this the other day...
You could adapt this routine for yourself:
And remove blanks from the front and back This just removes them from the
front.
I believe if you use -1 it will come off the back end.
for (var i=0; i<varBuilder.length; i++){
// for space there has to be a space between the two single quotes
if(varBuilder.charAt(i)== ' ' {
varBuilder.value=varBuilder.substr(i+1,varBuilder.length);
//this removes the empty space from the front.
}
}

try this "Trim(string)" this will remove all white space from the beginning
and end of your string. ex. if you have a user form field named "blahblah"
you could write #Trim(blahblah)#.
hope this answers your questions. good luck.
cheers,

Hi All,
Just wondering if there is an easy way to trim leading and trailing spaces
with JavaScript?
Jim
