    Vince. In your lines you need to put the less than sign above the comma 'br' and finish it with the greater sign above the period.

    Hit quote on this post to see how it works.

    Great to see you back Vince.
    Ok I hit the Thanks for the info

    those arrows indicate computer code. when you put "br" between them it is the code for a line break. you cant see those less than and greater signs here but you can see how the code between them effects the post

    Hey Vince
    Click the Quote button for this post.
    You will see how it is formatted with paragraph breaks.
    It uses the letters br and the greater-than, less-than symbols.

    good luck
    Rick

Maybe I need a little more coffee & less single malt scotch at 9 am ............. I do need to get dressed & get out to the Qtr.Deck to turn on the heat . right now its 29F > > breakfast will be a cheese blintz if i ever get arround to to making them, & since its Sunday , there will be a chuck roast some time late afternoon. > > I hope you are all ready for Christmas , I havent shopped for the Boss yet , she shopped for her self & got a 42 inch TV & a TV stand with a built in 23 inch electrict fireplace ,,,, but the stand will not be delivered untill the second week in Jan. 2012.... she didnt want to change the decorations so it is a delayed dilivery , so its the old 27 inch TV for all the tv watching with the new 42 HD TV sill in the BOX >since I am a bit out of practice this will do it for today , OH dammm I did forget that my grandson it getting an award at school, he has no idea about it yet , I got a call for the President of the school board (who is a customer) & from what I am told this is a BIG deal...... I will be cutting out of work Early to see the presentation just before the "winter fest" holiday show, ,,,,,, IF MY evening guy shows up to relieve me ......

OK I can process that , the details just get lost in the space between my ears ! time for more coffee, a little Jingle Java a blend of light & very dark roast Sumatra, , medium roast malibar, slightly toasted columbian & just a touch of pappa mali & a pinch of smoked Columbian , a gift from a ?

    Ok like this
    , is that at the top & at the end of the paragraph, & why dont I need to do that on other sites?
    when i put it on word pad I indent & use the standard font I have set up in my computer , it is Talahoma bold & italic, green ink, but when I post it I get a different font & color, when I trpe directly on the page to post here I indent make spaces & it still prints it in one mass, I thought it was just to save space.... but what do i know anout anything , other than coffee, cigars, food & single malt scotch.
    thanks for the help, Enjoy, Vince

  • beatnicbeatnic Posts: 4,133
    YES. LOL. Go ahead and type on your word program as you always do. Make your paragraphs, etc. Then copy and paste in Ccom site, type the br command once, copy it, and then just paste it where you want your breaks.
    We all agree, and have been on Ccom to change their software, but certain forces are pushing back.
