I've never used html optimization before and I'm wondering if anyone does regularly (to the extent of getting rid of most of the whitespace). Is it worth smaller loading times for unreadable, ugly html code? help me out here.

It's not worth it unless you serve as many pages as Google does.

Hi

please send the url of the page on which you want HTML optimization.

it is always better to have you HTML optimized

I wouldn't bother with it, because you would have to keep 2 versions - the readable source files and the unreadable "optimized" files. Sure it will save a few bytes, but it isn't really worth it unless you are google.

no optimization it is then.

Just to further confuse issues,

You could use gzip compression to reduce filesize without having to remove the whitespace/formatting from your html. There is more information about HTTP compression here with information about browser suport for it (almost all of them) here.

The Yahoo user interface team has also been doing a lot of research in this area;

Hope this helps.
