Empty lines at top of page

It seems that any newlines at the start of my page produce empty lines. For example:

{{include document=“Dev.Common.WebHome”/}}
{{include document=“Dev.Utils.WebHome”/}}
{{velocity}}

…causes three paragraphs (

), each containing a break (
).

Is there a way to stop that, other than cramming everything on a single line?

This is not correct you need 2 New lines between block level elements.

Also you’re using some deprecated syntax. see the doc for the include macro.

You should also leave an empty line between the include macro calls and the velocity macro, otherwise the velocity macro could be considered in-line (e.g. in the same “paragraph” as the include macros). I doubt you want that.
