Magic words?greenspun.com : LUSENET : Countryside : One Thread |
I have recently been posting responses to several of the posts on this forum and can't for the life of me figure out how to get them up in paragraph form. I space over for indents and press enter at the end of paragraphs but to no avail. It all comes up as one big blob. Are there magic words I have to say or what?

Double return to paragraph space. Two "enters" equal one blank line.And the space bar works for me for indents.

that translates to :'clik-clik' & 'tic-tic' respectively.

This is a _very_ simple message editor thingy. It needs to see 2 carrage returns (press enter twice) to make a paragraph. And the Tab key is almost useless on the internet, only changes from one field to another - it does not set the same tab spacing on different web browsers or computers. Use spaces to set indents - and with preportional fonts, these will not come out the same on different web browsers either, so don't bother trying to make a niffty indented and spaced chart - it will look like crap to about 1/2 the folks.The limits of about 100 difffernt 'standards' in the computer world. :) Just keep things simple.
