Extra space in end of line constant

Hello All,
Does anyone have an explanation why when using an end of line constant and a format into string there is an "apparent" extra space included?
The attached VI (LV 8.5) shows the behaviour. There should not be a space after the "e", but there appears to be. If you view the string in hex form there is clearly not an extra space character. What is going on here, am I misinterpreting how this is supposed to work?

Hi nrp,
Man I was trigger happy.
I see what you mean, if you step through the 'normal' string you will notice their's a position after the 'e' before going to the next lin.
This was my original reply (humble, humble)
I don't really get what you mean but I think you need to remember the 'hex' view is a formatted view, with an additional space after every second character!
The function returns this for me:
Which is totally acceptable for me. I see 5 characters ('o','n','e','CR','LF')

Script for Required fields acting strange on extra spaces at end of Name/Description

Found this script on this forum, which I added to my submit button.
var emptyFields = [];
for (var i=0; i<this.numFields; i++) {
     var f= this.getField(this.getNthFieldName(i));
     if (f.type!="button" && f.required ) {
          if ((f.type=="text" && f.value=="") || (f.type=="checkbox" && f.value=="Off")) emptyFields.push(f.name);
if (emptyFields.length>0) {
     app.alert("Error! You must fill in the following fields:\n" + emptyFields.join("\n"));
Great script but the ERROR! popup was not coming up until I went into InDesign and removed extra spaces after "(g)" Description and Names.
I am new at this, can someone let me know of any rules for naming these fields such as using underscores, or any other illegal chacters.

Jeff,
The SQL in the script file is below. To be honest, I have reduced it down to a simple select from dual and it still puts extra spaces at the end of the single line.
col ord noprint
spool test.csv
SELECT ' ' ord,
'ZONE_ORDER_NUMBER'||','||
'ZONE_NAME'||','||
'ZONE_TYPE'||','||
'DESCRIPTION'||','||
'START_DATE'||','||
'END_DATE'

UNION ALL
SELECT zone_name ord,

'"'||zone_type||'"'||','||
'"'||description||'"'||','||

Extra characters at end of line in spool file

I am trying to generate csv files from SQL Developer using queries written to spool files. I have embedded the queries and associated set commands in script files and call them, as advised elsewhere. This gives csv files that look fine, with headings and data comma separated and enclosed with double quotes. The problem is that the files seem to contain a lot of extra characters at the end of each line. They seem to be spaces, but not sure. This is causing problems for the person trying to load the data.
I'm using version SQL Developer 3.1.07.42, Java 1.6.0_11.
Any ideas on how to avoid the extra spaces appearing? Thanks for any help.
Ben.

Extra space in text file line

This one is not critical, just aesthetical. My program writes lots of lines of info into a text file. One section of my code seems to include an extra empty space at the beginning of the line. The text is correct, but it just looks awkward being one space off from all the other lines of text.
I will include a sample of the section of code writing to the text file. I didn't include all of my code, so parts of the sample I'm including will show errors, but you can get the gist of what I'm trying to do.
In the line that displays "Start time of switch setting", the text is moved one spot over. Why?

space in first text file line - sample code.vi ‏28 KB

Yup, that seemed to do the trick! I never even tinkered with "edit format string" of my "format into string" tools. I just wired my strings into them and let 'er rip.
I ended up looking into the format of my other "format into string" tools in my program and they were set up the same - a space between each %s. But only that one "format into string" tool between string lines 5 and 6 did it actually place a space in the resulting text. Weird. Nowhere else did that occur.
Thanks for the help!
And tell me about desctructive kids!! I have 4 kids - all under the age of 6! I know all about toilets clogged by toys, lipstick smeared on walls, hand lotion all over just cleaned laundry, etc.
My brother worked at a govt. contractor for a few years until he moved on to bigger and better. Years later he was browsing the stock section of the newspaper and he was reminded that he still had some stock from that company. So he glanced at the stock value listed in the paper and found he had almost $10,000 just sitting there! He bought a beautiful new Martin acoustic. I love that guitar! I have an old Fender dreadnought acoustic. I took it once to a guitar dealer to trade it in. He looked at it and handed it back and told me I better hold on to it, it was worth more than I realized.
Probably not worth enough to put 4 kids through college though.

Occasionally can't put space at end of line in Mail

Hi Everyone,
Occasionally when writing in the body of a message in mail I can't put a space at the end of the line.
If I push enter to go to the next line and send the message it breaks up the line/sentence.
Anyone know how to fix this?
Thanks,
Paul

This is not a bug and not a problem. It has to do with line formatting. As you reach the end of the line in a compose mail window the system knows that it will have to break the line over if you keep on writing. There will definitely be a space between your words if you just type on. Don't worry, they will be there.
No need to manually line break or format your mails. It is nonsense anyway as you have not the slightest idea how broad your recipients window will be or maybe even what kind of mail application she will use. (Might be Mail.app, might be Thunderbird or Outlook, might be Claris eMailer on a Macintosh SE, or even Webmail or a terminal eMail app like "mutt".)
You'll notice this behaviour in any app where you write text. Even in Safari when posting to the boards here, or in TextEdit. It is just normal.

Why can I not remove extra spaces from Mail when composing?

I am using Mail Version 8.1 and I cannot find a way to remove extra spaces from between my lines while composing. Every Enter makes the cursor go down two lines and there is no way to type in the space in between. There seems to be now way to see the html or any tags that can be causing this, and I cannot seem to find any setting to change the line spacing either. Does anyone know where to find any of these options so I can simply make the text single space?

Open a message-editing window. Under the Edit menu, deselect all the options in the Spelling and Substitutions sub-menus. Test.

Extra white space at end of url

I am using Safari and iBooks. When I open a document in iBooks and then click on a link in the opened document an extra space is being added to the end of the url. Here is an example:
http://portal.waters.com:57100/irj/go/km/docs/All/Marketing/Chemistry/Product%20 Information_Sales%20Collateral/ACQUITY%20CSH%20and%20XSelect%20Columns%20FAQs%20 -%20Internal%20Use%20Only.pdf%20
If I take the %20 off the end the links work. This is only happening on the iPad. Is there a fix for this? I can't have my end users taking the %20 off the end of all the links as there are too many.

So I can just make the image taller?
Yes, that's what most websites do.
The advantage of the image being a background image is that, if you make it longer than it needs to be, then it'll fill the screen on most resolutions and the unseen bottom part of the image will not generate scrollbars in browsers.
Could I insert a footer and have that stop at the bottom of the page no matter what resoulution someone is using, that way there will always be a footer?
That's the downside of background images. Since they're in the background, from a browser's point of view there's no actual page content (in the foreground) so there's no easy way of placing a footer at the bottom of the visible page and guaranteeing that it'll be seen on every display monitor regardless of resolution.
For that you'll need CSS.

If I put any character it is coming, but if I put space that is not coming. For the line that is set the height of the Repeating Frame long enough to have the blank space. Vertical Elasticity should be expand.
Also you can try by setting the property *"Vert. Space between frames"* for the Repeating frame.
Hope this helps.

Trouble with format of files exported from pages as .doc - when opened on a pc they have extra spaces and pages breaks inserted after each line? Can be manually deleted, but defeats sharing purpose. advice?

Hi all, I have trouble with the format of files exported by email as .doc from pages - when opened in MS word on a PC or other device, they have extra spaces and pages inserted after each line - can be deleted manually, but defeats sharing purpose. Any advice? Not the most sophisticated user.

Got it. I tried booting with MOD_AUTOLOAD set to yes, and it was working fine. Looks like I needed to specify some more modules in my list.

Why is there a thin dark line between two of my three cover images that wasn't there before? When I delete the images, you can tell that there is extra space between the first two image boxes.

Getting ready to purchase my first book, I looked over everything once more and noticed that there is now a thin gray line between the first two of my three cover images. I believe this may have happened when I switched out the left image. When I delete the images, you can see an extra space between the center and left image boxes. How can I fix this without starting over?

Hi Hans
cool, thank you very much
but here another problem arises. the source document is like this:
"this is an article .we discuss IT here."
after your approach it becomes:
"this is an article.we discuss IT here." ---> here MSword shows another grammar error because . is atached to "we".

How to trim the spaces at end of the line

Hi,
My requirement is to spool the data returned by query with column seperator as "|" .
I am setting linesize before running the query and can't expect the exact linesize. There may be extra spaces also.
Example:
2030588|EPM_NA_US_RMT_12295_____________________
21095480|EPM_NA_US_RMT_1583_____________________
__ = Extra Space
How can we trim those extra spaces?
Your early reply would definetly help me in achieving the requirement
Thanks,
Vijay

try this:
select rtrim(col1 || '|' || col2 || '|' || col3)
from table1;

Carriage Returns in HTML Code Creating Extra Spaces Between Elements

I've looked online all over and can't find the solution to my issue. I've found several pages explaining a similar event, but no solution.
When placing many divs next to each other, I would like to visually view the code as one div per line: (see image) To get this, I have to use hard returns in my code (this method makes editing a lot easier visually). But doing so adds extra spacing between the divs which turns a 3 column set of thumbnails to 2 colums. I can fix this if I adjust the physical margins between the divs, but this can't be the only fix.
The other fix is if I place the code back to back to back (see image): This makes the div's behave and appear as they should, but now the code is a visual mess because it's all cluttered.
What I want is to be able to use as many carriage returns in my code and for browsers to disregard these types of line breaks in the code. So essentially, how can I get away from these extra spaces when using hard returns in code?

I think that both your pages have a missing </div> at the end somewhere.
Opps... that happened when I was stripping down the page to create a working example of my issue. I've fixed the missing div and re-uploaded both pages. The problem is still there.
Change display: inline; to float: left; and add margin: 0 0 4px 4px; (as shown below)
I had already tried using float, but something else in the code was forcing the columns to 2 instead of 3.
Have you used "Apply Source Formatting" ?
I use that religiously. I'm quite anal about visually clean code.
Well, I just fixed the problem while replying... funny... I removed the margins from the actual img element (.imageThumb img) and placed it on the div which surrounds the img (.imageThumb). I also reapplied the float. Thanks all for the help - it helped me rethink. But I could have sworn I had once placed the margins on .imageThumb before and it didn't work.
.imageThumb {
    width: 100px;
    height: 75px;
    display: inline;
    float: left;
    margin: 0px 10px 10px 0px;
    cursor: pointer;
.imageThumb img {
    /*margin: 0px 10px 10px 0px;*/

Clearfloat problem-extra space remains in IE

Hi,
I've worked on this problem, did the Google thing, but I just
can't resolve it. There is extra space remaining under the image
even after using clearfloat. I want the bottom border to snug up to
the bottom of the image, but somehow in IE I keep getting that
horrible gray space.
Main
page-with troublesome space below before footer
Thanks so much for helping... as always!
Cheers,
Janell

I don't see an extra space problem related to floats in IE6
but I do see a
gray png background image under the spash-text. Pre-IE7
browsers do not
support alpha transparency on png images. If you get rid of
the bg image,
you'll see better results in IE. Or do a search for IE
conditional comments
or the IE star hack to serve a different image to pre-IE7
browsers.
