..A Program To Remove Blank Spaces

If I understood it correctly he also wants trailing and preceding spaces/tabs to be removed, so that code like

Code:

        <html>
   <body>
                     </body>
  </html>

would also become

Code:

<html><body></body></html>

so a simple find/replace of newlines won't do. An editor that supports regular expressions would be able to do it, like UltraEdit, but if you want to do this on a lot of files then a command line utility would be better.
