Template:Trim
Template documentation | This template is for trimming whitespace from strings, for the maintenance tag for images, see {{trimming}} |
This template trims whitespace from a string. The string should be passed as the first unnamed parameter. You may substitute this template - that is, if used as {{subst:trim}}, the resulting wikicode is "clean".
Usage
{{trim|text}} = text with any leading or trailing whitespace removed.
Example
{{trim| abc}}produces abc.
