NetBox version

v4.4.2

Feature type

Other

Proposed functionality

When pasting an IP address copied after triple-clicking it to select it in tables (IPAM Prefixes' IP Addresses tab, Devices or VMs' Interfaces tabs, for example), it get surrounded by spaces:

  • Actual: " 192.0.2.1/24 "
  • Wished: "192.0.2.1/24"

It's caused by the HTML text being actually surrounded by blanks; for example, for IPAM, it goes like this:

<td>

  <a href="/ipam/ip-addresses/123/" id="ipaddress_123">192.0.2.1/24</a>

</td>

If it were straight inside the <td> then it would be fixed:

<td><a href="/ipam/ip-addresses/123/" id="ipaddress_123">192.0.2.1/24</a></td>

Use case

Being able to quickly triple-select values from NetBox UI and use them without surrounding spaces.

Database changes

@jeremystretch commented on GitHub (Oct 9, 2025):

Unfortunately removing the occasional extraneous whitespace would take a substantial amount of effort on the template site, and complicate the process of reading and editing those templates. While I understand the utility of your proposal, it's unfortunately not something we can feasibly commit to.
