Blog Missing Paragraph Breaks

Hi,

I've just started using S9Y. Amazing software.

My test blog (www.lpcb.org/serendipity) has a problem with the paragraph breaks: they are missing so all the paragraphs run together.

I am using the default WYSWIG editor and v .9. Looking at the HTML code there is no apparent reason. I even tried forcing an empty paragraph by using the <p> </p> with a space in between.

I have checked out other users blogs and they don't have any problems so I'd appreciate any advice on what I can do to fix this.

Pressing the enter key in the wysiwyg editor should automaticall create a new paragraph. Which browser are you using? Does everything look alright when you write the entry in the wysiwyg editor?

The default template sets the margin of any "p" tag to 0 pixels. The reason for that is that else the WYSIWYG editor inserts certain tags that would create layout weirdness (when you are colouring your text).

You can ch ange that by editing your style.css and set the margin to 5pt or so.
