Hi Franky,

I have searched the forums about this issue and found two other entries about empty lines being shown in an event page, just above the booking form.

When I look in the html source code of the event page, it shows this:

<div id='div_eme-rsvp-form-60be9ade8483b'>
<form id='60be9ade8483b' name='eme-rsvp-form' method='post' action='#' ><input type="hidden" id="eme_frontend_nonce" name="eme_frontend_nonce" value="2d4f684ccb" /><span id='honeypot_check'><input type='text' name='honeypot_check' value='' autocomplete='off' /></span><br />
	   <input type='hidden' name='eme_is_multibooking' value='0' /><br />
	   <input type='hidden' name='eme_multibooking_tpl_id' value='0' /><br />
	   <input type='hidden' name='eme_register_empty_seats' value='0' /><br />
	   <input type='hidden' name='only_if_not_registered' value='0' /><input type='hidden' name='person_id' value='' /><input type='hidden' name='eme_event_ids&#091;&#093;' value='34' /></p>

<div class="bt_bb_headline_subheadline">Nog 14 plaatsen beschikbaar voor 24 juli 2021.</div>
<p> </p>
<table class='eme-rsvp-form'>

Notice the four <br /> tags in there? As was suggested in the other forum entries, I double checked my template, double checked my form and extra html headers, just to see that I had no blank spaces or even plain br tags in there.

After some trying and not being able to change things, I decided to look at the code of eme_rsvp.php. At line 120 till 124 I found the place where this html code was parsed.

The original code there:

$form_html .= "<span id='honeypot_check'><input type='text' name='honeypot_check' value='' autocomplete='off' /></span>
	   <input type='hidden' name='eme_is_multibooking' value='$is_multibooking' />
	   <input type='hidden' name='eme_multibooking_tpl_id' value='$template_id_entry' />
	   <input type='hidden' name='eme_register_empty_seats' value='$eme_register_empty_seats' />
	   <input type='hidden' name='only_if_not_registered' value='$only_if_not_registered' />";

To what I changed it in my file:
$form_html .= "<span id='honeypot_check'><input type='text' name='honeypot_check' value='' autocomplete='off'></span><input type='hidden' name='eme_is_multibooking' value='$is_multibooking'> <input type='hidden' name='eme_multibooking_tpl_id' value='$template_id_entry'><input type='hidden' name='eme_register_empty_seats' value='$eme_register_empty_seats'><input type='hidden' name='only_if_not_registered' value='$only_if_not_registered'>";

In short: I deleted the line breaks and put those separate input-tags back-to-back instead of on separate lines. After saving and uploading the file, the issue of having those unwanted BR-tags was gone.

I suspect that the php-code builds up the full page, then does the line scan / add-BR scan (is that through eme_nl2br_save_html or similar?), and then outputs the info to the screen. But the line breaks that force the BR-tag to be added are in the code so the user cannot correct that!

Could you please verify this for a future release?

N.B. One other thing I noticed and first thought to be causing the issue; as I know that ending a html tag with /> is mandatory for some tags in HTML5, the INPUT-tag is not one of them as that is a solitude tag, even in HTML5. So that could be removed as it does nothing. But doesn’t do harm either.
