Smuck knows real estate best.

He is the master!

I especially like this part of the post!

I find that the easiest way to eliminate these things (in dreamweaver) is to use the find & replace function (Ctrl-F) then simply replace the &nbsp with a single space.

Find & Replace is your friend

Are you talking about using the REW cms or something else Joe?

Spaces in html code are interpreted as single spaces between characters. So if you use this code:

<p> Smuck rules . </p>

You get this:

Smuck rules .

***

If you end a <p> and then start a new one, you get a double line break. So for example, <p>Smuck rules.</p><p>No really, he does.</p> would give you this:

Smuck rules.

No really, he does.

***

But if you want this:

Smuck rules.
No really, he does.

..then you have to use a <br />. Like this: <p>Smuck rules.<br />No really, he does.</p>

Alternatively, if you are using the WYSIWYG (ie you're not in expert mode), you can just use shift+enter to go down only one line instead of two.

I have a WAY better solution for you. In fact this is just an error in the way you are using your wysiwyg. You should make sure you select "Paragraph" from the drop down in the wysiwyg.

I don't use expert mode, I use wysiwyg and I have no issues.

...Alternatively, if you are using the WYSIWYG (ie you're not in expert mode), you can just use shift+enter to go down only one line instead of two.

It's not that I am getting the &nbsp; in between paragraphs, I am getting code that looks like this:

...in between paragraphs.&nbsp;&nbsp;I am getting code...

But in WYSIWYG it looks like this:

...in between paragraphs. I am getting code...

So, I really do not have issue with line breaks or paragraph breaks, it's when I use the space bar to insert spaces in between sentences and/or words.

What happens when you delete them in HTML mode, and update the page? Are there no spaces beetween the characters? If that is the case, go back in to the cms and enter the spaces using thespace bar on the keyoard using the WYSIWYG. Then update, and look at the source code and see if the WYSIWYG is reinserting the &nbsp;.
