Hi,
I notice that the String class doesn´t have some simple methods. So, I
added these:
ltrim: function() {
var re = /\s*((\S+\s*)*)/;
return this.replace(re, "$1");
},
rtrim: function() {
var re = /((\s*\S+)*)\s*/;
return this.replace(re, "$1");
},
trim

In Prototype parlance, "trim" is "strip":
http://prototypejs.org/api/string#method-strip
And in response to Richard, instead of writing your own "left", try
"truncate". Many other needs (ltrim, rtrim, right, mid) are already
met with "sub".
