The review guidlines recommend to use a <p> tag for opening a new paragraph.





But it doesn't work - the same with other formatting options like <b> aso.

@Max: I guess you're running some anti-xss functions to change HTML to safe text in order to prevent hacking. Consider the following solution for the problem described above (using Visual Basic syntax):

reviewContent = Replace(reviewContent, "<p>", "__P__")
reviewContent = Replace(reviewContent, "</p>", "__PP__")
reviewContent = Replace(reviewContent, "<b>", "__B__")
reviewContent = Replace(reviewContent, "</b>", "__BB__")

run Anti-XSS on reviewContent

reviewContent = Replace(reviewContent, "__P__", "<p>")
reviewContent = Replace(reviewContent, "__PP__", "</p>")
reviewContent = Replace(reviewContent, "__B__", "<b>")
reviewContent = Replace(reviewContent, "__BB__", "</b>")

I know I always have to edit my review from my own page in order to insert paragraph breaks (I HATE writing without them), and in some cases quotation marks. Hopefully the problem will be solved soon, because it's a bit of a nuisance.

^ of course the quick solution would be to change the text ... people should use double line feeds instead of <p> until another solution is found.

Well - it would be enough to update the review guidelines.
I only wanted to point out the contradiction ... Wink
