Question:
Why does my paragraph structure not carry through to my posts?

Everything I post to Q&A or the message board ends up as one long blob of writing, yet when I type I put things in paragraphs. I see some peoples posts come through okay. What am I doing wrong? Also the paragraphs show up in my profile but when I go to my surgery page the Personal Comments are all lumped together. Who knows, this may be all lumped together too but it wasn't written that way. Any Ideas?    — zoedogcbr (posted on November 30, 2002)

Here and on the message board, you have to use the HTML tag for a new paragraph. That would be a "<"p">" - except without the quotes. <p> I just put one of those HTML tags between my first and 2nd paragraph here and you see the blank line. The profile page is handled differently (it respects the blank lines you insert). Hope this helps...JR

Chris - I e-mailed you how to do the colors... <p> You can write in: <font color=green>green, </font> <font color=red>red, </font> <font color=blue>blue, </font> <font color=yellow>yellow, </font> <font color=purple>purple, </font> <font color=white>white, </font> <font color=orange>orange </font> among other colors (the invisible one was white, btw *G*)...JR
