All they do is affect the way the HTML source looks, but they won't affect how the browser displays the page. If you're not interested in making the HMTL source "pretty", then getting rid of them will save a few bytes that have to be transferred on each page request, and also keep your PHP source code a wee bit smaller and easier to read. Basically it just depends on where your priorities lie.
Personally, I almost never worry about it, and if for some reason I do want to indent my HTML source (e.g. to debug a display issue), I let[url=http://www.charles-reace.com/blog/2008/09/05/tabbed-ouput-with-tidy/]Tidy do the work[/url] . ?
Why are table tags like ttt ???
I was editing through some PHP code, I need to change a table but I’ve noticed its all coded like:
echo “tttttt<span id=’jcart-subtotal’>” . $text[‘subtotal’] . “: <strong>” . $text[‘currency_symbol’] . number_format($this->total,2) . “</strong></span>n”;
echo “ttttt</th>n”;
echo “tttt</tr>n”;
Whats this?
Why is it like that? and how to i change it or understand what row or cell I am in.
Thanks
