Smarty

[Salino]

Hello people,

I'm new to smarty so bear with me.
When I use Smarty, the smarty part causes gaps in my HTML. Like so

Temp:
{if something is true}
<span>some HTML</span>
{/if}
<span>some other HTML</span>

HTML output:
//<---gap in HTML
<span>some HTML</span>
//<---gap in HTML
<span>some other HTML</span>


Do you know what I mean? It makes my HTML look cluttered.
Maybe I'm doing it wrong, but there must be a way around it?

thanks for your help!

Everything outside the {...} will be included in the html output, also the newlines after the }.

If you don't like it you must write:

{if something is true}<span>some HTML</span>{/if}
<span>some other HTML</span>
