Being and interpreted language it will return it basically how it parses it.
If it where a compiled language, i.e. Java, etc you would not see the
spaces, or at least not as prevalent, there are also some settings in the CF
Server Admin that allow you to strip down some of the white space. It does
cost you in the time to return game though...

Subject: Whitespace
Another developer just asked me why ColdFusion returns the complete lines of
whitespace where ColdFusion tags have been removed and found I didn't really
have an adequete answer.
I know you can use CFSETTING and CF_StripWhitespace, but those are
workarounds. Why aren't blank lines just removed once the code's been
parsed?
