Purpose
Reduces the size of a dynamically generated Web page by compressing extra space caused by tabulators, white space, and new-line characters.
Specify the value of this variable in the DEFINE block.
Using <PRE></PRE> tags: Defining this variable to YES affects the amount and type of white space that is printed. If the variable is set to YES, portions of HTML pages that use <PRE></PRE> tags might not display as intended.
If you are using DTW_PRINT_HEADER to generate your own headers (DTW_PRINT_HEADER="NO"), you must set DTW_REMOVE_WS to "NO".
OS/390 users: Set this variable in the Net.Data initialization file to specify a value for all of your macros. You can override the value by defining it in the macro. If DTW_REMOVE_WS is not defined in the macro, it uses the value in the initialization file.
Values
DTW_REMOVE_WS="YES"|"NO"

Values | Description |
