          You can use depends to execute trim in other parameters like lettersonly which accepts boolean as value.






          businessName: {
          maxlength: 15,
          lettersonly: {
          depends: function() {
          $(this).val($.trim($(this).val()));
          return true;
          }
          }
          }
