Question

I have created an MVC 3 view, just by adding a controller and scaffold it by usage of entity framework.

See below view:

<table>
    <tr>
        <th>
            MetaType
        </th>
        <th>
            Value
        </th>
        <th>
            Page
        </th>
        <th></th>
    </tr>

@foreach (var item in Model) {
    <tr>
        <td>
            @Html.DisplayFor(modelItem => item.MetaType)
        </td>
        <td>
            @Html.DisplayFor(modelItem => item.Value)
        </td>
        <td>
            @Html.DisplayFor(modelItem => item.Page.Title)
        </td>
        <td>
            @Html.ActionLink("Edit", "Edit", new { id=item.Id }) |
            @Html.ActionLink("Details", "Details", new { id=item.Id }) |
            @Html.ActionLink("Delete", "Delete", new { id=item.Id })
        </td>
    </tr>
}

</table>

When I open the view on my dev machine than the html produced is just as expected:

<table>
    <tr>
        <th>
            MetaType
        </th>
        <th>
            Value
        </th>
        <th>
            Page
        </th>
        <th></th>
    </tr>

    <tr>
        <td>
            Keywords
        </td>
        <td>
            bla, bla bla,
        </td>
        <td>
            Home
        </td>
        <td>
            <a href="/Admin/metainformation/Edit/1">Edit</a> |
            <a href="/Admin/metainformation/Details/1">Details</a> |
            <a href="/Admin/metainformation/Delete/1">Delete</a>
        </td>
    </tr>

On our hosting environment it’s rendered with on almost every row an extra whiteline.

<table>

<tr>

<th>MetaType</th>

<th>Value</th>

<th>Page</th>

<th></th>

</tr>

<tr>

<td>Keywords</td>

<td>values, values, values.</td>

<td>Home</td>

<td><a href="/Admin/metaInformation/Edit/1">Edit</a> | <a href="/Admin/metaInformation/Delete/1">Delete</a></td>

</tr>

Anyone has an idea why there is a difference, and how to resolve this extra whitespace?

UPDATE
It seems like only this page is having this issue. Other pages just have a normal html layout as expected. I also have checked the data from the database, but can’t find anything unusual or different than the other pages.

I have also tried to regenerate the file and upload it again, but also no luck. I’m a bit out of options on this issue.

After a doing a republish of my application the issue has dissapeared. Haven’t found what’s causing it.
