remove whitespace and test

Hi,

I know removing whitespaces I can found so many threads to read how it works and i did it, but my problem isn't solved...

I have in my script a variable $1 which can contains a text like " Channel ".

No I want to check if $1 contains the word Channel, but I don't know how many whitespaces there are before and after the word...

I tried this:

if [ "Channel" = $1|awk '{print $1}'>$1 ] ; then
echo "found!!!"
fi

So where is the problem??
Sorry for this stupid question

Ben Sky
