You should trim the spaces in an Action before populating the form fields.

Subject: trimming fields in bean and html tags
Date: Wed, 26 Mar 2003 12:18:18 -0600
Hi all,
I'm forced to live with a db where many columns are chars instead of
varchars. In cases where the contents of the char column doesn't fill the
space allowed, I get my result padded with spaces. The practical problem
that this introduces is that if I want to use the validator to enforce
length restrictions (where the max length is the db column width), a user
can't just put his cursor at the end of the visible text and start typing
because of all the spaces. I was hoping for a way to specify in bean:write
and html:text to trim any extra spaces but see no such option. Any
suggestions?
thanks
