Mohammad,
I have seen this extra leading and trailing space issue a few times. This
is in part why I use the method I proposed which uses the link widget to
create the link.
Others have suggested passing such values with leading and trailing spaces
to another macro to "sanitise them" eg if parameter is the value returned
(Without brackets but leading and trailing spaces.)
<<macro parameter>>
\define macro(input) [$Input$]
Regards
Tony
