Jetty, as with all JSP processors, adds the newlines. JSP sees the
text as a template, which is to say that all characters not in a tag
are directly output to the destination. This includes newlines,
multiple spaces sequences, etc. Hence the "hack" of putting the
newline characters in the tags where they will be displayed in the
source, but will not be copied to the destination.
Another example will show that the newlines are added by the JSP
processor, not the SPARQL tags:
This is a bunch of text <c:if test='${true}'
>that will <sparql:out node="${aRow.age}"/> appear in </c:if
> one line
