This looks like Javascript so I will post a trim function someone posted for me 
a while back and I hope it helps:
 

function trim(StringToTrim){
 var strReturn = new String(StringToTrim);
 while (strReturn.charAt(0) == " "){
  strReturn = strReturn.substr(1, strReturn.length - 2);
 }
 
 while (strReturn.charAt(strReturn.length - 1) == " "){
  strReturn = strReturn.substr(0, strReturn.length - 1);
 }

 return strReturn;
}

How can I remove the leading spaces in a variable within an a ASP page?

This is what I'm trying to do.  I have a dropdown from which a suer 
will make a selection.  Then I am comparing the selected value another 
hardcoded value.  like this:

if (document.form1.cmbCenter.value=="" && 
document.form1.cmbDivision.value == "Clinical Services")
{
   do something.
}

But it seems to me that the document.form1.cmbDivision.value lenght is 
longer than "Clinical Services".  That is why I want to eliminate any 
leading spaces to document.form1.cmbDivision.value .
