Default String.trim()

Page 206.

After half an hour of head-scratching ... would I be right to suggest that reExtraSpace should be

/^\s*(.*?)\s*$/

?

Otherwise trim() only works if there is space at BOTH ends of the string.

(I also sent this as an erratum to Wiley before spotting this forum).

PS: Is there a way to search this specific forum?<center></center><center></center><center></center><center></center><center></center><center></center>

You are correct. This is in the process of being added to the errata page right now.
