Re: Orion's JSP generated code

[Sergei Batiuk]

<%   foo(); %><%   bar(); %>   This looks like a nice idea! However: If I have several jsp's to include into one page, each will add the \r\n. My opinion is that this is not a philsophical difference, but something that orion server developers or JSP specification developers missed. I can always add as many \r\n's to my page as I wish. But there is no way to remove unnecessary ones.

This results in many blank lines in the generated HTML code. In comparison, PHP scriplets do not produce these blank lines. Does anyone know how to "beautify" the generated code?   Thanks in advance, Sergei.
