Hi all, (have searched, but not been able to find a simple solution to this one either here, or in Cocoa docs) Q. How can I trim all leading whitespace only from an NSString?

Hi, I know that there are many types of space (em space, en space, thin space, non-breaking space, etc), but, all these, that I refered, have HTML entities (at least, PHP's htmlentities() return something like  .

Hi folks, I still have the problem with whitespaces: I have an uploadform for users to upload mp3-files. It works fine, except when there are whitespaces in the filename. At the moment I tell the user not to use Filenames with whitespaces, but apparently its very common to use them in mp3s. So I would like to solve this problem. What h...
