OCD Driving me crazy with line breaks SugarCube2.X

Okay, so I have a bit of code that is a pretty standard <<if>> macro. It plays out something like this.

<<if $Theother is 1>>
Slect your character's thing.
* This <<radiobutton "$PC.thing" 0>>
* That <<radiobutton "$PC.thing" 1>>
* The Other <<radiobutton "$PC.thing" 2>>
NextPlace
<<elseif $Theother is 0>>
Select your character's thing.
* This <<radiobutton "$PC.thing" 0>>
* That <<radiobutton "$PC.thing" 1>>
NextPlace
<<endif>>

Everything works as intended. Except the blank spaces. If $Theother is 0, an extra blank line appears above "Select your character's thing", where as if $Theother is 1, it isn't there. I tried using <<nobr>><<endnobr>> but that messes up the line breaks I actually do want for the radio buttons. And you can't separate an <<if>> statement from it's closing <<endif>> either. I guess what I am really asking here is is there a way to force a line break within a <<nobr>><<endnobr>>

I apologize if this was asked already. I didn't really no how to word what I was trying to say in a search box and it make sense.

    What about write it all on one line and use <br> or <p> tags to force a line break.

    E.g.

    <<elseif $Theotheris 0>><p>Select your character's thing.</p>

    or

    <<elseif $Theotheris 0>><br>Select your character's thing.

    In general, use of <p>paragraph text</p> tags to activate line breaks is how HTML is "supposed" to be written. Carriage returns (enter) can introduce problems.

    That certainly solves the uneven lining. However it does add an extra line between each option. Cures my OCD, but kind of plays with the format in a way I didn't expect. Using just <br> doesn't really help at all, adding an extra line up top still. <p></p> makes everything even. I suppose this will have to do. Thanks for the help.

    You can define the line spacing between <p> in your css if you want to reduce it.

    Right >.< CSS. I should have realized that. Thanks again.

    You could simply use the line continuation markup (\) after the <<if>>/<<elseif>> clauses. For example: 
    <<if $Theother is 1>>\
Select your character's thing.
* This <<radiobutton "$PC.thing" 0>>
* That <<radiobutton "$PC.thing" 1>>
* The Other <<radiobutton "$PC.thing" 2>>
[[Continue|NextPlace]]
<<elseif $Theother is 0>>\
Select your character's thing.
* This <<radiobutton "$PC.thing" 0>>
* That <<radiobutton "$PC.thing" 1>>
[[Continue|NextPlace]]
<</if>>
    Alternatively, you could try the config.cleanupWikifierOutput configuration property.

    Oh wow. That is much stupid easier. I knew it had to be something small. Thanks to @Claretta anyway, but this is exactly what I was looking for.
