Backspace parameter or something similar?

I noticed that the backspace parameter does not work for the user authors tag. Is there something similar or that I am missing?

By {exp:user:authors entry_id="{embed:entry_id}" dynamic="off" backspace="7"}
{encode="{email}" title="{screen_name}"} &amp; 
{/exp:user:authors}

Thanks!

Mike,

User Authors functionality runs off of alot of the same functionality as the User Module: Users loop.
The feature is currently not available, although I definately agree it should be.

I’ll put this feature request in queue to be added soon

Thank you for your patience

Thanks Pie Man. I’ll see if I can come up with another solution and post here if I do.

Here is the solution that I am using until the backspace parameter is added to the User Module:

By 
<?php
$entry_authors =
"{exp:user:authors entry_id="{embed:entry_id}" dynamic="off"}
{encode=\"{email}\" title=\"{screen_name}\"} &amp; 
{/exp:user:authors}";

$entry_authors = substr($entry_authors, 0, (strlen($entry_authors)-7));

echo $entry_authors; 
?>
