spacing has gone wonky

    Hello,
    Some weird stuff has been happening for the last two posts. They look fine until published. I forgot to copy and paste what was connected to the top line in my post but here is what was with the bottom link in my post. I did do some deleting in text (no idea what I’m doing) and got the post not too bad but I cannot get a space between the text and the second, bottom link even though it looks fine in my drafts.
    Why is this happening all of a sudden?
    Can someone help me get things back to normal?
    I would really appreciate it.
    Thank you,
    Elaine (inglesymagia.wordpress.com)

    All that garbage formatting code is a result of copying and pasting from Microsoft WORD.

    Edit the post to remove that code > http://en.support.wordpress.com/posts/edit-posts-screen/

    Microsoft Word is a word processing program that’s not compliant with web standards. The result of copy and pasting from Microsoft Word into the Tiny MCE editor in WordPress blogs can be unexpected, and contain a lot of formatting code that’s not compliant unless you know how to use the built-in features in the Visual editor for using Word cleanly. http://en.support.wordpress.com/visual-editor/#pasting-text

    Note you need to click the kitchen sink icon #15 at the end of Row 1 to have Row 2 appear. http://en.support.wordpress.com/visual-editor/#row-1

    Go here and enable this > Settings > Writing
    Formatting
    _ WordPress should correct invalidly nested XHTML automatically
    “save changes”

    I recommend using Windows Live Writer for posting to your blog > http://en.support.wordpress.com/xml-rpc/windows-live-writer/
