Ken and Chipp are being very helpful when they provide useful/working code,
but I'm more curious about why the original code did not work. It looked
reasonable to me: the kind of code I might actually use some day, and get stuck
on.
Any thoughts?
:)

Try this:
function trim pWhat
local tRetVal
get matchText(pWhat, "(?s)^\s*(.*?)\s*$", tRetVal)
return tRetVal
end trim
Trims all forms of whitespace (CRs, spaces, tabs, etc.) from the beginning
and end of a text chunk.
