Q822 How can you remove space from a text field?

Try:

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript"><!--
function replace(string,text,by) {
// Replaces text with by in string
    var strLength = string.length, txtLength = text.length;
    if ((strLength == 0) || (txtLength == 0)) return string;

    var i = string.indexOf(text);
    if ((!i) && (text != string.substring(0,txtLength))) return string;
    if (i == -1) return string;

    var newstr = string.substring(0,i) + by;

    if (i+txtLength < strLength)
        newstr += replace(string.substring(i+txtLength,strLength),text,by);

    return newstr;
}
//--></SCRIPT>

<FORM>
<INPUT NAME="myField" TYPE="TEXT" VALUE="1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0">
<INPUT TYPE="BUTTON" VALUE="Remove Spaces" onClick="this.form.myField.value=replace(this.form.myField.value,' ','')">
</FORM>
