Massimo Lusetti commented on TAPESTRY-2028:
-------------------------------------------
This is actually nice but in some use case the whitespace characters are used
by web designers (at least the one i work with) so control at some degree the
layout, in particular, when the CSS margin elements are not honored correctly
by the browser.
We have one application which will render completely differently with this two
different templates:
First
<ul id="ulId" class="ulClass">
<li class="liClass">some text</li>
</ul>
Second
<ul id="ulId" class="ulClass"><li class="liClass">some text</li></ul>
So we end up using this kind of indentation to keep the template readable:
<ul id="ulId" class="ulClass"
><li class="liClass">some text</li
></ul>
BTW i actually don't know what is actually causing this behaviour...

> Key: TAPESTRY-2028
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TAPESTRY-2028
> Project: Tapestry
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: tapestry-core
> Affects Versions: 5.0.7
> Reporter: Howard M. Lewis Ship
> Assignee: Howard M. Lewis Ship
>
> Tapestry (4 and 5) has traditionally honored all the white space in a
> template. This is for a few specific cases, such as text inside a <pre>
> element (who uses those?).
> This results in output documents that, due to the extra whitespace that often
> surrounds Tapestry components, contain large amounts of whitespace.
> In most cases, interior white space (whitespace between text characters) can
> be reduced to a single space, and white space just after a tag or just before
> a tag can be eliminated entirely.
> The Tapestry template parser should honor the xml:space attribute and use it
> to determine what template whitespace is relevant, and what whitespace may be
> minimized or eliminated.
