I'm using PHP & PostgreSQL.

All values called from the database are still padded with extra spaces from 
the column size in the database. Is this normal - I don't remember this 
happening when I was using MySQL. I thought usually the database stripped 
the extra spaces when it retrieved the values.

How do you recommend dealing with this, using a PHP command to strip every 
value from the database - or can I change something in the database to have 
it strip the spaces auto magic like?
