How can I remove spaces from around a string value?

If you want to do this, then the function you need is trim. It is very simple and works like this:


<?php

$toomuchspace = "    how are you    ";

echo "<$toomuchspace>\n";

$thatsbetter = trim($toomuchspace);

echo "<$thatsbetter>";

?>

And this is the result:

< how are you >
