Re: [PHP-DEV] CVS update: php3 From: Jim Winstead (jimw <email protected>)

I think the request was for trim() to chop at both ends. This is what
the function called trim() in a number of other languages (Visual Basic
is the only one that springs to mind, but I'm sure there's others) does.

Something that trims only at the front is good, though. Perhaps add
trim() to do both, leave the current trim() as ltrim(), and add rtrim()
as an alias for chop()?
