Thank you Leon, the 'trimSpaces' servlet parameter works fine except some little issues: 1. The span it trimmed is a little wider, it even trimmed the continuous empty lines and the leading white spaces of the first line after directives. <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
<[EMAIL PROTECTED]> will output nothing to client, but I want to keep the empty line 3,4,5 which are not in the same lines to directives. 2. the evaluated body in <c:forEach></forEach> is trimmed as the same indent as the tag directive if there are differnce between them. see the following example JSP code: -------------------------------------------------------- <%@ page session="true" contentType="text/html; charset=UTF-8" import="java.util.*" %> <%-- JSTL 1.1 tag library --%> <%@ taglib prefix="c" uri="http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/core"; %> <%-- JSTL 1.0 tag library --%> <%--@ taglib prefix="c" uri="http://java.sun.com/jstl/core"; --%> <%-- 中文 used for save this file as UTF-8 encoding --%> <html> <head> <style type="text/css"> pre,code { border:1px solid} </style> </head> <body> <% ArrayList<String> arrayTest = new ArrayList<String>(); pageContext.setAttribute ("test", arrayTest); for(int i=1; i<=5; i++) { arrayTest.add (String.valueOf(i)); } %> <pre> Case 1: c:forEach has 0 indent, non-whitespace characters occurs BEFORE c:out <c:forEach var="t" items="${test}"> Line <c:out value="${t}"/> </c:forEach> </pre> <pre> Case 2: c:forEach has 2 tabs indent, non-whitespace characters occurs BEFORE c:out <c:forEach var="t" items="${test}"> Line <c:out value="${t}"/> </c:forEach> </pre> <pre> Case 3: c:forEach has 0 indent, non-whitespace characters occurs AFTER c:out <c:forEach var="t" items="${test}"> <c:out value="${t}"/> Line </c:forEach> </pre> <pre> Case 4: c:forEach has 2 tabs indent, non-whitespace characters occurs AFTER c:out <c:forEach var="t" items="${test}"> <c:out value="${t}"/> Line </c:forEach> </pre> <pre> Case 5: c:forEach has 2 tabs indent, there are no non-whitespace characters around c:out <c:forEach var="t" items="${test}"> <c:out value="${t}"/> </c:forEach> </pre> <table border="1"> <tr> <c:forEach var="t" items="${test}"> <td> <c:out value="${t}"/> </td> </c:forEach> </tr> </table> </body> </html> -------------------------------------------------------- Unfortunately, non of these 5 cases meet my demand. The behaviour of 'trimSpaces' in my mind will be: 1. Trim only whitespace characters if there are no non-whitespace characters in the directive line 2. An exception to 1: Do not trim whitespace characters which the directive will generate outputs (such as c:out of JSTL or bean:write, bean:message of struts ), maybe this is a trouble to JSP compiler, because it needs knows behaviour of tags: which tags are logical tags and which tags are html tags, but it is really good if 'trimSpaces' can achieve this. 3. Do not trim any other lines which does not contain directives. Wish the JSP compiler can enhance 'trimSpaces' in details... (I'm thinking: Am I a boring man... -_-!) But anyways, the 'trimSpaces' parameter is a good stuff for me now than having not it.
