Depends on what you're using to process/validate the
form.
In javascript to validate/process on the client side
something like:
var str = " this is a test ";
str = str.replace(/^\s*|\s*$/g,"");
If you're passing it to validate/process on the server
side
in java
str.trim()
or in simple-method
<call-object-method method-name="trim"
obj-map-name="parameters" obj-field-name="str"
ret-field-name="newStr"/>
