- Description
- When you edit text using the WYSIWYG editor, extra <br /> tags are added when the text is displayed in preview or when it is saved. These break tags do not show up when you try to edit the page again, making them impossible to remove.
<p>This is some text.<br />This is some more text, on a new line</p>
For example, if the markup in the WYSIWYG editor, when you view the source, is as follows:
<p>This is some text.<br /><br />This is some more text, on a new line</p><br />
What shows up when you view the source of the page that is generated after you save/preview is as follows:
As a result of this, the spacing on pages edited by the WYSIWYG editor is bizarre and stretched out. - Solution
