I just tried the no_white filter and apparently no_white really means
no white.  I wrote a new filter to remove blank lines only:

CodeDef no_blank_lines Routine <<EOR
sub {
my $val = shift;
$val =~ s/\n+/\n/g;
return $val;
}
EOR

and wrapped that around my bottom template which contains most of my
HTML.  Unfortunately it didn't work.  I get just as many blank lines.

Do you mean mod_tidy?  I'm in a discussion with a guy on the apache
list about mod_tidy and he has urged me to steer clear of it.
