Stripping leading and trailing whitespace from text fields in forms in
nearly always desirable, but Django doesn't handle this for me.
There seems to be a hook built in for massaging input data before it's
validated: FormField.prepare(). I tried subclassing TextField like so:
class MyTextField(django.forms.TextField):
def prepare(self, new_data):
new_data = new_data.strip()
But since strings are passed by copy, this has no effect.
Any suggestions?
Do you think this functionality should be built into Django?
