Space between paragraphs

    I hope this is the right section for my question.

    Sometimes in my posts I need to separate two paragraphs, instead of going just down with the line.

    With WP 1.5 I had a WYSIWYG editor plugin, that didn’t work exactly like some real WYSIWYG editor (like Dreamweaver), because with ENTER I created a <p> tag, but not the space between paragraphs….however, the problem could be resolved by pressing ENTER two times…

    Now, with WP 2.0.1, I tried to deactivate that plugin (Mudbomb plugin, for the chronicles), and not only the problem is still there, but I can’t even resolve it with that trick….the space is not there, and it will not be created with ten-thousand ENTER, too…

    Could be something with the CSS? Or is it a bug of the 2.0 editor?

    Thanks in advance…

    Normally the wysiwyg in WP 2.x works like this:
    Enter = paragraph <p>
    Ctrl+Enter = line break <br />

    Yes, OK…but in my posts the <p> acts like a <br>: no space between paragraphs.

    I checked my CSS and it seems there’s nothing wrong…

    It looks like the p tag spacing is working fine to me.

    Using the single page https://www.allofu2.com/notizie/togli-il-grammy-agli-u2/ as my base, I looked at your code.

    Where there are p tags, there is space. There are places where it looks like you intended a new paragraph, but what you’ve got in the code is a br instead.

    Example – the first paragraph after the blockquote starts with “Molti di voi hanno pensato che…” and that paragraph isn’t actually closed until “…riesco a dare torto a 6 miliardi di persone.”

    I’m not sure how you’re doing it – are you somehow pressing ctrl+enter by mistake? – but somehow you’re getting breaks where you want paragraphs.

    Sorry FruitFly….yesterday I was busy and I didn’t remember to check out this topic…

    I asked a friend of mine and she told me just to add a margin-bottom for the p tag….now it works, as you have seen

    A very simple solution, and I asked to the support….I’m sorry
