Retrieve LMS User Name as Variable

Hey all!  I've been using variations of this code for a while now to add my learner's name to in-course instructions and certificates and it's been very useful.  Thanks all!

However, I've found that platforms such as Litmos, Docebo, and Cornerstone, tend to add an unwanted space before the first name.

In the past I've worked around this by reducing the left margin on the text box that displays the variable, as I'm not really a coder.  But recently I've been 'chatting' with ChatGPT to analyze and refine code. 

During a recent chat, ChatGPT provided this updated code.  It pulls the user name from the LMS, removes any spaces, and splits it into First Name and Last Name.

And it works!

var player = GetPlayer();

function findLMSAPI(win) {
  if (win.hasOwnProperty("GetStudentID")) return win;
  else if (win.parent == win) return null;
  else return findLMSAPI(win.parent);
}

function removeSpaces(name) {
  return name.replace(/\s/g, '');
}

var lmsAPI = findLMSAPI(this);
var myName = lmsAPI.GetStudentName();
if (myName.charAt(0) === ' ') {
    myName = myName.substring(1);
}
var array = myName.split(',');
var firstName = removeSpaces(array[1]);
var lastName = removeSpaces(array[0]);
player.SetVar("FirstName", firstName);
player.SetVar("LastName", lastName);
