I should not have posted a partial from haml. An rhtml file, that is
not a partial pulled in from a haml file, still shows the same spaces
- like it does in the second textarea in the image above.
In other words, my other pre-haml rthml files, unless I override them
like I did in the first post, still contain errant spaces.
The fix is to get off my bum and use all haml - and I can live with
that :)
