How to delete all white spaces ?

[trinhanhngoc]

I use WebParser to get one data on internet. Example:
...
RegExp="(?siU)...(.*)..."
...
(.*) -> " #very much white spaces# Stairway to Heaven"
How to delete all white spaces before the value ?
Become :
(.*) -> "Stairway to Heaven".

Try using \s*(\S.*) instead of (.*). The "\s" is shorthand for any whitespace, whereas "\S" is shorthand for anything that's NOT whitespace. Basically, this says to go through whitespace characters, until it hits a non-whitespace character, at which point it saves the rest. If you had a file like this:

Code: Select all

<tag1>                       SOME STUFF</tag1>

And then used this RegExp:

Code: Select all

RegExp="(?siU)<tag1>\s*(\S.*)</tag1>"

The result would be "SOME STUFF".
