/**
 * Spaceless widget removes whitespace characters between HTML tags. Whitespaces within HTML tags
 * or in a plain text are always left untouched.
 *
 * Usage example:
 *
 * ```php
 * <body>
 *     <?php Spaceless::begin(); ?>
 *         <div class="nav-bar">
 *             <!-- tags -->
 *         </div>
 *         <div class="content">
 *             <!-- tags -->
 *         </div>
 *     <?php Spaceless::end(); ?>
 * </body>
 * ```
 *
 * This example will generate the following HTML:
 *
 * ```html
 * <body>
 *     <div class="navbar"><!-- other tags --></div><div class="content"><!-- other tags --></div></body>
 * ```
 *
 * This method is not designed for content compression (you should use `gzip` output compression to
 * achieve it). Main intention is to strip out extra whitespace characters between HTML tags in order
 * to avoid browser rendering quirks in some circumstances (e.g. newlines between inline-block elements).
 *
 * Note, never use this method with `pre` or `textarea` tags. It's not that trivial to deal with such tags
 * as it may seem at first sight. For this case you should consider using
 * [HTML Tidy Project](http://tidy.sourceforge.net/) instead.
