Greetings,
There are lots of times where I'd like to split up a critical part of
HTML into multiple components, but <TMPL_INCLUDE>ing them messes things
up because of the \n's that are added at the end of each include.
The template files themselves don't contain any newlines or carriage
returns but numerous tests have demonstrated that a \n is prepended
after each include.
Normally, this isn't an issue with HTML but there are cases where this
extra characters causes problems (display problems in certain HTML
layouts, trouble when it messes with stuff like HREFs).
For instance, we have a system where each template can refer to
appropriate "hints". In order to avoid having to make the code aware of
the textual content of the template, we simply created two templates:
A:
-------------
<a href="#" onClick="window.open('<TMPL_VAR NAME='hintbasehref'>/
-------------
and B:
-------------
','hint','scrollbars=yes,width=450,height=295')"><img src="blah" /></a>
-------------
Which simply allows other templates to:
<TMPL_INCLUDE NAME='A'>NameOfThisHint<TMPL_INCULDE NAME='B'>
leaving the program itself blissfully unaware of the mundane details
(i.e. exactly which templates contain which hints). However, because of
the newlines this is output as :
<a href="#" onClick="window.open('http://example.com/hint.cgi/
NameOfThisHint','hint','scrollbars=yes,width=450,height=295')"><img
src="blah" /></a>
and doesn't work...
Anyhow, I've groveled through the code a bit and suspect it has
something to do with the "line count" but I can't figure out where these
newlines are coming from or how to get rid of 'em.
Any help would be appreciated.
TIA,
