This template is for trimming whitespace from strings. For the maintenance tag for images, see {{trimming }}
This template trims leading and trailing (but not interior) whitespace from a string. The string should be passed as the first unnamed parameter. The parameter must be named |1=
if its value contains a =
character.
You may substitute this template - that is, if used as {{subst :trim }}
, the resulting wikicode is "clean".
Usage
{{trim |text }}
= text with any leading or trailing whitespace removed.
Examples
"{{trim | abc}}
" produces "abc"
"{{trim |xyz }}
" produces "xyz"
"{{trim | abc xyz }}
" produces "abc xyz"
