HTMLPad 2014 4.0: I am new to the Forums so apologize in advance if this was covered before, but I could not find the answer using Search.
I need to remove spaces/blanks in the code lines of a new HTML; compress multiple lines into 1 line by removing the line spaces and blanks. The objective is to have a 'leaner' file with minimum code lines.
Example:
<tr><td>column 1</td>
<td >column 2</td>
becomes
<tr><td>column 1</td><td>column 2</td>
I guess it would be similar to menu CSS: Compress CSS Code, but for HTML code lines.

You can use HTML Tidy profile Clean and Compress HTML to achieve that (menu Tools -> HTML Tidy).

Re: HTMLPad 4.0: How to Remove Spaces/Blanks in Code Lines?
Hi Aivars,
Thanks for the prompt response. I may be doing something wrong but these are my attempts with Tidy.
Original new HTML with a simple table looks like this (keeping all the line spaces as in editor):
<html>
<head>
<title>Untitled</title>
</head>
<body>
<table>
<tr>
<td>row 1 column 1</td>
<td>row 1 column 2</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>row 2 column 1</td>
<td>row 2 column 2</td>
</tr>
</table>
</body>
</html>
SO, I want to compress these lines but when
Tools > HTML Tidy > Clean and Compress HTML, I get this result (spaces between html and head removed, but spaces between table cells ADDED!)
<html>
<head>
<title>Untitled</title>
</head>
<body>
<table>
<tr>
<td>row 1 column 1</td>
<td>row 1 column 2</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>row 2 column 1</td>
<td>row 2 column 2</td>
</tr>
</table>
</body>
</html>
