Spaces before and after template inclusion

[eluser]Unknown[/eluser]
Hi guys,

I've noticed that whenever I include a template within other templates, line breaks are added in the HTML before and after the template that's been included. This normally doesn't bother me except for in some styling instances where the line breaks add more space around a listing.

If I embed the same chunk of code within the template that I was loading it into, then it's fine (there are no spaces).

I've checked through all my code for rogue spaces, and haven't found any. I was wondering if anyone has come across this before, and how I can remedy it?
