getting some white space…

Hi guys,

quite often, after editing pages, wordpress seems to remove any space at all between paragraphs… giving my pages a real “busy” and cluttered feel…

i.e.
Instead of looking like this:

paragraph 1 blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah. blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah. blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah.

paragraph 2 blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah. blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah. blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah. blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah. blah blah blah blah blah blah.

It looks like this:

paragraph 1 blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah. blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah. blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah.
paragraph 2 blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah. blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah. blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah. blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah. blah blah blah blah blah blah.

I’ve been trying to remedy this by inserting <br /> and <p> tags throughout my pages in HTML View.. but it seems wordpress automatically removes these sometimes, doesn’t other times, recognises it sometimes and not other times etc…
Surely, there must be an easier way. (Yes, i’ve cleared my cache).

Does anyone have any suggestions? I’m driving myself nutty.

Cheers,
Dan
