how do I strip white space when grabbing text with jQuery?

by

Use the replace function in js:

var emailAdd = $(this).text().replace(/ /g,'');

That will remove all the spaces

If you want to remove the leading and trailing whitespace only, use the jQuery $.trim method :

var emailAdd = $.trim($(this).text());
