HOT TIP on posting!!!!!!!

  • Like me, you have probably been 'bugged' by the extra line added when you use the enter key.

    I have found a way around it and it doesn't require typing your message in Notepad and then copying it into the window. It's ALOT easier.

    How do I hit enter (carriage return) and not skip a line you ask?

    Easy, hold down the shift key and then hit enter.

    It will carriage return to the next line without

    adding a blank line.

  • Good one!

    How did you find it out?

  • I found it out totally by accident. I was typing fast and managed to slip and hit the shift when I hit the enter key. I saw what happened and worked on recreating what I had done.

  • I think you will find that return will be adding a <P> tag and shift-return will be adding a <BR> tag into the text, many HTML editors work in this manner.

  • The SHIFT-return thing also works in many word processors including Microsoft Word.
