Hi,
I like to eliminate blank spaces from a character or numeric filed. Is there any function like Trim() to get rid of all the blank spaces from the right or left site of the filed by using JavaScript?
objValue =" ABC " or objValue = " 1233 "
FieldLength =anyFunctionName(eval(objValue.value.length))
Thanks,
Naci
You have to use the string object, then call a regular expression on it like the following :
Code:<HTML>
<HEAD>
<SCRIPT Language="Javascript">
<!--
function TrimIt()
{
var strobjTextBox;
strobjTextBox = document.all.textbox1.value;
alert ("The Trimmed Text is :" + "'" +
strobjTextBox.replace(/^\s+|\s+$/g, "") + "'");
}
-->
</SCRIPT>
</HEAD>
<BODY>
<INPUT Type="text" id="textbox1">
<BR><BR>
<INPUT Type="Button" id="cmdTrimTxt" Value="Click To Trim Text!"
onclick="TrimIt()">
</BODY>
<HTML>
btw, there is a different forum for javascript questions for another time ;)
