HTML files having line spaces added when I open them with RapidPHP
If I use godaddy's file manager and download direct, the file is fine.
If I use any FTP software, and it doesn't matter which one, download an HTML file and open it with an rapidphp editor, there is line spaces between every code line.
But if I open the same file in coffeecup HTML editor or notepad, it is fine. Problem only happens in rapidPHP.
Why would this happen and how can I fix it?

This happens if you upload files using Binary mode and download using FTP ASCII mode.
Usually FTP clients upload all files in binary mode by default (except txt and some other popular formats). For example, your normal FTP client could be uploading PHP files in binary mode, if it is not set up to specifically treat PHP as ASCII. If you download with the same client with the same wrong Binary mode, there will most likely be no problems.
Rapid PHP by default treats PHP as ASCII (which is correct), however if you open incorrectly uploaded file with Rapid PHP, empty lines could pop in.
Solution: Make sure all your files are uploaded in ASCII mode. Otherwise download them in Binary mode and re-upload in ASCII mode and form that moment on only use ASCII.
