Skinning extra <p /> issues

I'm trying to design my own skin templates but I've been struggling with extra <p /> showing up after </html> PatternSkin does not have that problem but WidgetsSkin as like 9 extra <p />

I've double checked many times that I don't have extra empty lines (even did that using binary editor). I've also tried to use various skin template tricks like have a TMPL:DEF that you recall using TMPL:P without success.

Even having an empty file as foswiki.myskin.tmpl results in an empty page with 2 <p /> !

Can't figure out how PatternSkin does it.

I was using 1.0.4 on Windows.

There may be no newlines after the last character in the templates! So watch out with editors that add these by default.

I thought I fixed it by following your advice and removing new line at the end of my viewtopicactions template file but adding it back did not reproduce the problem. So I must have fixed it doing other stuff as I kept developing the skin. I'm puzzled
