Description

Inspired by http://blog.stevenlevithan.com/archives/faster-trim-javascript, I developed a trim() function that is just a little slower than the current, regexp-replacement based solution in jQuery 1.4.2 for very short strings (< 50 characters). It is, however, MUCH faster for longer and very long strings. Depending on the browser, the speed improvement compared to the current implementation can be several orders of magnitude. Please see the attached patch.

Best regards and wishes for the success of jQuery, Martin Gruner
