1067	"""Spaceless"" tag, removes spaces between html nodes"	brantley (deadwisdom@…	Adrian Holovaty	"This is a cool tag that I think should be added to the defaults, it removes spaces between HTML tags.  This is a problem many designers has banged their heads against many walls over, where spaces between tags show up even though they are clearly not inteded to be there.
So this:

{{{
   {% spaceless %}
       <a href='#'>
            <img src='something.jpg' border='0'/>
       </a>
       <a href='#'>
            <img src='something-else.jpg' border='0'/>
       </a>
   {% endspaceless %}
}}}
Renders as:
{{{
<a href='#'><img src='something.jpg' border='0'/></a><a href='#'><img src='something-else.jpg' border='0'/></a>
}}}

{{{
import re

re_spaceless = re.compile("">\s+<"")
def do_spaceless(parser, token):
	nodelist = parser.parse(('endspaceless',))
	parser.delete_first_token()
	return SpacelessNode(nodelist)

class SpacelessNode(template.Node):
    def __init__(self, nodelist):
        self.nodelist = nodelist
    def render(self, context):
        rendered = self.nodelist.render(context).strip()
        return re_spaceless.sub(""><"", rendered)
