I've had trouble getting special characters into my story, can you post a HOWTO if it doesn't exist. In particular n- and m-dash. Paragraph spacing is also tricky. One CR seems to add no space between paragraphs and two CRs creates too much.
Any help is appreciated.
Hi Ghost. There are no special characters allowed. It's to stop spammers putting in their junk code.
Try pressing shift+enter twice for the carriage returns instead of just enter.
Ok. looking into the spacing problem a bit more it seems to be a browser issue. Using 'Enter' for double spacing and 'Shift-Enter' for single spacing only works in Internet Explorer not Firefox.
I hadn't noticed that before.
In IE, pressing Enter give you what seems like a double line space, holding shift + enter gives you one space. In Firefox, pressing enter just gives you the one line space, as does holidng shift + enter.
I'll see if something can be done to make it more cross browser compatible.
hi ghost
there's no quick solution. the text edit control is something that is a third party control.
if you fancy getting back to basics, you can use the raw html tags for a paragraph, not elegant i know:
<p> this is my para </p>
