The PHP function trim()[link] will remove whitespace from the beginning and end of a string. The function will take an optional parameter specifying alternate characters to be stripped.

Sorry.

Part of that post should have read:

trim()

It's just as the online manual specifies....

<?php
$a = "The sheeps'";

print trim ($a, "'");

?>

Outputs:

The sheeps
