texte = Dan, Are you talking about finding a good way to remove all the blank lines that are created in the HTML by every line of WebDNA code? If so, then here's what I do: When I have a block of code that will create many blank lines (like a loop or founditems) I will put "[text]garbage=" at the beginning of the block and then "end garbage[/text]" at the end of the block. This will hide all blank spaces in my final HTML. However, it also hides output, so I have to create a [finaloutput] variable inside the code block. I keep adding my results to that [finaloutput] variable and then after the loop is completed I show that [finaloutput] variable. This technique has sped up a lot of my heavily processed pages. ----------------- Matthew A Perosi Psi Prime, Inc. 323 Union Blvd Totowa, NJ 07512 Phone: 973-413-8210 Fax: 973-413-8217 Dan Strong wrote: > Hey everybody *crickets chirp*, > > Any clever ideas on how to clean up webDNA-manipulated source code, > besides adding [!][/!] all over the damn place? > My thoughts are going towards the following: > 1) [grep], but grep what? -- removing spaces inside of tags> would kill stuff and/or make the page not validate. > 2) [middle startafter=>&endbefore<] would *probably* work most of the > time, but seems server-intensive. > 3) [removeHTML] the entire final source, save what was removed, delete > everything else, then put the HTML back... same as #2... > > Lastly, when/where to put this solution? pre/post-parse script?

Dan, Are you talking about finding a good way to remove all the blank lines that are created in the HTML by every line of WebDNA code? If so, then here's what I do: When I have a block of code that will create many blank lines (like a loop or founditems) I will put "[text]garbage=" at the beginning of the block and then "end garbage[/text]" at the end of the block. This will hide all blank spaces in my final HTML. However, it also hides output, so I have to create a [finaloutput] variable inside the code block.
