Forum Post problems

[Beder]

Hi, I'm trying to send a post to the Forum. I have a fairly long post and when I type all the text in with paragraphs (by hitting RETURN key) it looks fine. But when I look at it in Preview all the text is globbed into one giant paragraph, with no sections. I don't want to send it that way. (This is the start of a new paragraph.) Why is this happening? How can I post with various paragraphs? (New paragraph)I'm on a Mac. (New) Thanks for any help! Let's see how this post look.... Barbara

 welcome barbara,

this issue is related to the way some browsers (safari, chrome, opera) are interpreting the javascript from the editor (the region you're typing your message) ... we have prepared an update for the whole community section but due to heavy workload not been able to finalize the transition though it is one of our high priority tasks

as a workaround you could either use firefox (not the worst of all possible browsers) or add manually <p> for paragraphs and <br> for linebreaks

Thank you, Christian!
My browser is Firefox. Thanks for the tip on using the paragraph and line break code. That enabled me to post successfully.
What is the code for bulleted text?
Thanks, again!

now that's interesting - are you saying firefox (2 or 3) on OS X does not create paragraphs when typing [ENTER]?

in your user profile you can set the editor preferences to *extended* - possibly you have the *no-scripts* extension installed in firefox?

ps bulleted is <ul>

• <li>text1</li>
• <li>text2</li>

</ul>

but in the extended editor there is a formating icon for *unordered list*
