hi all,
i put this text into a text box that i created with css and need to put spacing between each paragraph however everytime i press the return button to make a new line the cursor goes back to the top of the text box.
attached is a pic of what happens to the text in the box.
thanksWhat text editor are you using?
Or is this happening when on the web page? If so, post your code.David is using Macromedia Dreamweaver MX i think? The problem is all Dreamweavers. You will probably have to go into the code view (<!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.st-andrews.ac.uk/ITS/faq/web/dreamweaver/dw012.shtml">http://www.st-andrews.ac.uk/ITS/faq/web ... w012.shtml</a><!-- m -->) and change it your self. <p></p> et cetera.
Alternatively, try holding Shift+Enter and that will insert a standard page break. If you are using CSS for layouts i would reccomend you start coding in the code view as the normal design view is unrealistic in many cases. You will also get a whole new insite into how your site is mapped out and if you keep it organised, you may not have to worry about mucky code via Dreamweaver.
Hope that helps.
Best Wishes,
