Sorry folks, it ended up not being a code fault (I am too good!) - I changed the Rich Text Editor to use instead of and forgot to whitelist the tag...

Configuration error.

All good now.

Paragraph tags and nbsp's are taking over!

Personally I preferred it when there were less paragraphs in the office but I appreciate that is a lost battle!

Usually I'm one for freedom of speech and opinion around this subject.. but that's just not something acceptable to say.

In fact, that's almost the epitome of the systemic nbsp issues in IT.

Comment from my wife

"I prefer offices with less paragraphs too. More gets done and there's a lot less aggro!"

I actually think you are trolling now.

I'd prefer he was, that explains it. But methinks he isn't.

No, he genuinely is stuck in the 1940's.

that post for example when quoted gets a tonne of extra "paragraphs" added, there are now 7 lines between the paragraphs when i/others quote it ie http://www.geekzone.co.nz/forums.asp?forumid=162&topicid=191415&page_no=2#1485470

it adds a heap of extra white space to a page (Bad thing IMO)

Yes, I know about this problem - and only happens with a few people and I haven't been able to pinpoint it. However people quoting will see that and could just fix before submitting.

but you are relying on people, same with the huge images people post or the super long links, you are relying on people to fix all those them selves and while most do, those that don't make more work for the mods and make the forum harder to view for most others.

I know there's this reliance, and I don't like it. I just don't have the time to fix it until I have the time. Until then it's a minor annoyance in my priorities list.

Ive found that happens when you have a link at the end of something, it sticks the / quote inside the link and you cant delete it without going into the source and getting rid of it there.

Yep, fail BBCode I think. I shouldn't have to edit the source just to quote. xD
