Content embedded via [[S51]] has a space embedded after it.

Mark Kindy

I have some really heavy code which does some date calculations and outputs custom date strings; I have these stored in PageBuilder pages and embed them in the page via [[S51]] tags.

The problem is, embedding them this way results in an extra space being appended to the string, which is problematic in the middle of a sentence. For example:

<p>Thank you for joining us this [[S51:getDayName]], [[S1:first_name]]!<p>

...which becomes...

Thank you for joining us this Wednesday , John!

I can't really modify the wording of the sentence and make it sound natural. I feel like there might be something really obvious I'm missing, but I'm clueless at the moment. Anyone else come up with an idea for this already?

I'd try the S130 replaceall tag.

<p>Thank you for joining us this [[E130: [[S51:getDayName]] " " "" replaceall]], [[S1:first_name]]!<p>

<p>Thank you for joining us this [[E130: [[S51:getDayName]] " " "" replaceall]], [[S1:first_name]]!<p>

 

Might be even easier to use T9 to trim lead/trailing space.


<p>Thank you for joining us this [[T9:[[S51:getDayName]]]], [[S1:first_name]]!<p>


For reference, a rundown of the T-Tags.

Thank you, both! I'd completely forgotten about the replaceall operation with S130, and I didn't have T9 on my list -- thanks for the references for each!
