-----------------------------------

Jonathon,

If you want to see how much markup is being produced by OFBiz, all you have to 
do is view the page source of any content-intensive OFBiz page.

It would help if you spent a little time understanding what Freemarker does, 
and the purpose of the <#compress> directive. It is NOT the same thing as HTML 
1.1 gzip compression.

> Reduce OFBiz's HTML output so that pages load faster on dial-up lines.
> Three things can be done to achieve that goal:
> 1. Reduce HTML code through better use of styles (currently in progress).
> 2. Eliminate the language selection code that is sent out with every page 
> request. Intead of having a selection box in the header, just display the 
> currently selected language and provide a link to change it. Clicking on the 
> link could produce a language selection popup window - similar to the current 
> lookup windows.
> 3. Freemarker has the <#compress></#compress> directives which eliminate 
> unnecessary HTML white space. A recent test showed the directives can yield a 
> 33% reduction in markup. Problem is, that only works if the directive is 
> placed in every FTL file. There needs to be a way to make that a global 
> setting in Freemarker, so that ALL markup is reduced - without any additional 
> FTL coding. I looked around the Freemarker website for a way to do that, but 
> couldn't find anything.
