  Hi

  On my latest post “Debut of Cape Town’s first drag king troupe” I can’t get the spacing between points 1 – 10 correct for each of the six interviews. All I want is a break between each numbered question and a break above each pic but I can’t seem to get it right! Maybe because I copy and pasted from a word doc? Please help! Thank you.

  Go into the HTML Text tab and enter
  where you want the break to be. I wouldn’t advise copy and pasting from Word docs in future, you’d be better copy and pasting it to a Notepad doc then copy and pasting that into your blog as it gets rid of the formatting.

  1) You mean you want paragraph breaks. You need to switch the editor to “Text” (formerly “HTML”) and delete all of these:
  <div>

  and all of these:
  </div>

  Then switch back to “Visual”, highlight all, and set the Format tool (row 2 tool 1) to Paragraph. Then hit enter where necessary.

  2) Never copypaste from Word or other sources into the Visual editor: it introduces bad code that messes things up (as you saw). If you have to copypaste, paste into the “Text” editor so that only the text will be pasted.
