Leaves space in input field

**codingisfun** · 12-03-2007 03:01 PM

I have a problem. I don't want to leave blanks in input as shown below:

Display from Input element:
Should be -> |Mickey|
Comes up -> |Mickey |
Which leaves some trailing blank.

Sample code below:

<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript">
function maxLen()
{
var txt="Size=" + document.getElementById("name").size;
var txt=txt + " and Max length=" + document.getElementById("name").maxLength;
alert(txt);
}
</script>
</head>
<body>

<form>
Name: <input type="text" id="name" value="Mickey" size="6" maxlength="6" />
<br /><br />
<input type="button" onclick="maxLen()" value="Alert size and maxLength" />
</form>

</body>
</html>

Thanks.

How about something like this? (I just googled "javascript 'remove space' forms)

That code wouldn't work. Let's say if I have "Mickey Mouse" and JS returns "MickeyMouse" which removes all blanks.

This is what I want:

Now shows: |Mickey.....| ...... are blanks (about 5 blanks).
Should be " |Mickey| size=6, maxlength=6.

Thanks.
