KirbyDE, aren't all of the whitespaces there intentionally? The regex in 1.0.0 was Logician's original regex but it didn't compress things well enough and my attempts at an advanced regex compressed things so well that it killed whitespaces that are necessary for the presentation so I wrote a simpler regex that strips the whitespaces at the beginning of each line.

It doesn't have any effect on how you view the page unless you're viewing the XHTML. If you were viewing the XHTML, you would not have any level of template compression enabled on your forums.

I have this installed on my forums if you want to check it out:

By the way, thanks for the tip regarding the comments. I was considering stripping them in a new version but I didn't realize that stripping them might affect javascript. Looking at the syntax Jelsoft used I could probably strip them either by ensuring they're on a single line or by also requring the whitespace found after "<!--" in comments but not in the javascript (from what I can see).

Edit: Also, if anyone is interested in why vBulletin strips slashes from the plugin upon submit/edit, they'll want to check out this bug report at vBulletin.com:

It should be fixed in vBulletin 3.5.0 Beta 2 from what I can gather.
