Here is a fiddle demonstrating the problem http://jsfiddle.net/WM8XW/ I have inserted many whitespace in the content of the label tag but the html rendered seems to remove it. Is adding   only solution to the above problem HTML Content <label>label with very long white space in between</label> Sirko The normal behavior for the display of whitespaces is to compress them into a single one, which is then displayed. There are two exceptions from that: The <pre> tag , which keeps the whitespaces as entered. Setting the CSS property white-space: pre; (respectively pre-wrap or pre-line ) Browsers

How can I trim the leading or trailing characters from a string in java? For example, the slash character "/" - I'm not interested in spaces, and am looking to trim either leading or trailing characters at different times. You could use Leading: System.out.println("//test/me".replaceAll("^/+", "")); Trailing: System.out.println("//test/me//".replaceAll("/+$", "")); Brad Parks You can use Apache StringUtils.stripStart to trim leading characters, or StringUtils.stripEnd to trim trailing characters. For example: System.out.println(StringUtils.stripStart("//test/me", "/")); will output: test/me

What's the JavaScript equivalent to this C# Method: var x = "|f|oo||"; var y = x.Trim('|'); // "f|oo" C# trims the selected character only at the beginning and end of the string! One line is enough : var x = '|f|oo||'; var y = x.replace(/^\|+|\|+$/g, ''); document.write(x + '<br />' + y); ^\|+ beginning of the string, pipe, one or more times | or \|+$ pipe, one or more times, end of the string In a function : function trim (s, c) { if (c === "]") c = "\\]"; if (c === "\\") c = "\\\\"; return s.replace(new RegExp( "^[" + c + "]+|[" + c + "]+$", "g" ), ""); } s = ".foo..oo..."; console.log(s, "-

I want to implement a feature that lets the user trim an audio file (.caf) which he perviously recorded. The recording part already works, but how can i add a trimming feature similar to the one in the Voicememos app. Is there an api for the audio trimmer apple uses? Any help would be great... How about using the AVFoundation? Import the audio file into an AVAsset (composition etc), then you can export it - setting preferred time + duration - to a file. I wrote a stock function awhile ago that exports an asset to a file, you can also specify an audiomix. As below it exports all of the file,

Cleaning the values of a multitype data frame in python/pandas, I want to trim the strings. I am currently doing it in two instructions : import pandas as pd df = pd.DataFrame([[' a ', 10], [' c ', 5]]) df.replace('^\s+', '', regex=True, inplace=True) #front df.replace('\s+$', '', regex=True, inplace=True) #end df.values This is quite slow, what could I improve ? jezrael You can use DataFrame.select_dtypes to select string columns and then apply function str.strip . Notice: Values cannot be types like dicts or lists , because their dtypes is object . df_obj = df.select_dtypes(['object']) print

I would like to trim a beginning and ending double quote (") from a string. How can I achieve that in Java? Thanks! You can use String#replaceAll() with a pattern of ^\"|\"$ for this. E.g. string = string.replaceAll("^\"|\"$", ""); To learn more about regular expressions, have al ook at http://regular-expression.info . That said, this smells a bit like that you're trying to invent a CSV parser. If so, I'd suggest to look around for existing libraries, such as OpenCSV . To remove the first character and last character from the string, use: myString = myString.substring(1, myString.length()-1);

I was trying to achieve stripping off some beginning part from a string using php ltrim function. It works fine until it get a i character after colon : . if it find i after colon it simply ignore the i character. I know it can be done with substr or any other way but I want to know why its happening with trim. For example. ltrim('mailto:bob@example.com','mailto:'); the above function will return bob@example.com but if I put i after colon.. for example ltrim('mailto:info@example.com','mailto:'); this one will return nfo@example.com Can anybody explain what is happening?
