note 39309 deleted from function.trim by tomsommer

Note Submitter: mike-php@emerge2.com ---- This is the function I use to trim all the elements of an array, even a multi-dimensional array: function trim_array( $given ) { return is_array( $given ) ? array_map( 'trim_array', $given ) : trim( $given ); } The function returns an array if passed an array, a string if passed a string, so it is always safe to use. It is called in a similar manner to the built-in trim() function: $trimmed_array = trim_array( $untrimmed_array );
