قالب:Trim leading

Template documentation[view] [edit] [history] [purge]

Usage

{{Trim leading | <input> | <prefix> }}

Trims up to six instances of <prefix> (such as: 0 or "anti-") from the beginning of <input>. <Prefix> is set to "0" by default (for removing leading zeroes from numbers). Template will not properly work beyond the first whitespace in the input.

Limitations

  • New code should strongly consider or .
    • For backward compatibility, both the input and pattern string are trimmed of surrounding whitespace before processing begins. This means you cannot remove three instances of "the " from "the the the thing"; instead you will remove one instance of "the".

    Examples
