I'm working with an automotive listings script from Flynax, and while I had no problem installing it on one site a few months back, I'm running into issues with a new install of the script on a new site (but same hosting company). Specifically, line breaks are being added to the code that is causing some of the javascript in the admin section to not work properly.

For example, here is a section of one of the program files...

Code:
{rlHook name='apTplListingsTabsArea'}
   
      {include file='blocks'|cat:$smarty.const.RL_DS|cat:'m_block_end.tpl'}
   {else}
   
      <script type="text/javascript">//<![CDATA[
      // collect plans
      var listing_plans = [
         {foreach from=$plans item='plan' name='plans_f'}
            ['{$plan.ID}', '{$plan.name}']{if !$smarty.foreach.plans_f.last},{/if}
         {/foreach}
      ];
      
      var ui = typeof( rl_ui ) != 'undefined' ? '&ui='+rl_ui : '';
      var ui_cat_id = typeof( cur_cat_id ) != 'undefined' ? '&cat_id='+cur_cat_id : '';
      
      /* read cookies filters */
      var cookies_filters = false;
      
      if ( readCookie('listings_sc') )
         cookies_filters = readCookie('listings_sc').split(',');


...and here's what's showing up in the source code...

Code:
<script type="text/javascript">//<![CDATA[

      // collect plans

      var listing_plans = [

         
            ['1
', 'Bronze Plan
'],
         
            ['4
', 'Gold plan
'],
         
            ['24
', 'Featured package
'],
         
            ['38
', 'Silver plan
'],
         
            ['26
', 'Free Package
']
         
      ];

      

      var ui = typeof( rl_ui ) != 'undefined' ? '&ui='+rl_ui : '';

      var ui_cat_id = typeof( cur_cat_id ) != 'undefined' ? '&cat_id='+cur_cat_id : '';

      

      /* read cookies filters */

      var cookies_filters = false;

      

      if ( readCookie('listings_sc') )

         cookies_filters = readCookie('listings_sc').split(',');


Any idea what could be causing that? Neither Flynax nor my hosting company seem to know for sure.

I'm seeing the same issue with templates. I'm seeing extra whitespace and and newlines.

It would be nice if Smarty would output the html exactly as it's laid out in the file, ignoring the Smarty tags.

Code:

{block name="main_nav"}
<ul class="main-nav">
{foreach $menu_items as $menu_item}
    {if $menu_item.selected}
    <li class="selected"><a href="#" class="{$menu_item.icon}-icn">{$menu_item.text}</a></li>
    {else}
    <li><a href="#" class="{$menu_item.icon}-icn">{$menu_item.text}</a></li>
    {/if}
{/foreach}
</ul>
{/block}


OUTPUT: (Note the whitespace and misalignment of all the html tags.)

Code:


<ul class="main-nav">
    <li class="selected"><a href="#" class="blah.ico-icn">Label</a></li>
       <li><a href="#" class="ha.ico-icn">Another Label</a></li>
    </ul>

   


EXPECTED:

Code:

<ul class="main-nav">
    <li class="selected"><a href="#" class="blah.ico-icn">Label</a></li>
    <li><a href="#" class="ha.ico-icn">Another Label</a></li>
</ul>



This is a trivial example, but here's the general output of a page. I'm using template inheritance and have many blocks. The white space areas are where I have {block} tags (Which don't include that white space in the template.)

This is less than ideal.

Code:



<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
    <head>
        <title>$page_title</title>
        <link rel="SHORTCUT ICON" HREF="">

        <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
       

       
        <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="css/theme.css"/>
       
       

       
   
       
       
    </head>
   
    <body>
       
<header>
   
    <div id="headerLogo" class="header-logo"></div>
   
   
    <ul class="header-nav">
       
               
       
               
       
        <li><button>$log_out_button_text</button></li>
       
    </ul>
   
</header>

       
<nav>
   
<ul class="main-nav">
        <li class="selected"><a href="#" class="blah.ico-icn">Label</a></li>
            <li><a href="#" class="ha.ico-icn">Another Label</a></li>
    </ul>

   
<ul class="secondary-nav">
</ul>

</nav>

       
<div class="content">
    <div class="last-updated"></div>
</div>

       
<footer>
   <button>Woo</button>
   <div class="copyright"><a href="#">About</a></div>
</footer>

    </body>
   
</html>

Whitespace control on Smarty tags has always been an issue.

Rodney has written an prefilter to solve this

See http://blog.rodneyrehm.de/archives/16-Smarty-Whitespace-Control.html

This will be implemented in the standard syntax of the upcoming Smarty 3.2 release
