Help - Space in script that splits string at comma

[Hoggman]

Hi all

take a look at http://www.beal-homes.com/test.asp

I have used the script below to split a field down at commas and then
created a new string

This works but after the first item there is a space where the comma used to
be, is there any way I can remove this?

Thanks

<script language="javascript">
var devText="<%=(houses.Fields.Item("location").Value)%>";

function getDevelopments() {
var input = devText.split(",");
var input2 = new String();
for (var i = 0; i<input.length; i++) {
input2 += "<a
href='home_template.asp?id=<%=(houses.Fields.Item('id').Value)%>&titleofdeve
lopment=" + input + "'>" + input + "</a>" +"<br>";
} document.all("dev").innerHTML = input2;
}
</script>

The output of that server side code is this:
var devText="Leaf Sail Farm, Church View, The Willows";

That is where your spaces are coming from.

To remove them, either remove them on the server or check the FAQ of
this group for the Trim, LTrim and RTrim functions.

function getDevelopments() {
var input = devText.split(",");
var input2 = new String();
for (var i = 0; i<input.length; i++) {
input2 += "<a
href='home_template.asp?id=<%=(houses.Fields.Item('id').Value)%>&titleofdeve
lopment=" + input + "'>" + input + "</a>" +"<br>";
} document.all("dev").innerHTML = input2;

document.all is not a function.

thats the error message Mozilla gives.
