Joining my HTML output into a single line (Google does it)

Wed Oct 22 14:41:30 MSD 2008

What about elements which are styled to have white-space intact using 
CSS? For instance:

<div style="white-space: pre">

This is a
div            with whitespace
intact

</div>

Will mod_strip leave that alone? I'm guessing it won't. There's also 
<textareas /> to take into consideration, and linked stylesheets 
defining "pre" elements. Oh, and Javascript adding it on afterwards.

Not bashing here - I think mod_strip is a great idea and I've used it 
myself on occasion. I've also found that it causes some headaches with 
out designers as they expect copy to lay out correct when they throw a 
"pre" on there and it doesn't.
