Board index » Web Programming » FP 2002 Paragraph Formatting Always Gets Screwy In Normal Mode

Web Programming152
This has driven me nuts since I got FP 2002.



It seems as though every time I hit <enter>to create a new <p>the screen

display for all the paragraphs goes nuts. Quickly switching to Preview then

back or to HTML and then back fixes the display but why should I have to do

this -every- frickin' time I start a new paragraph. I tried this on another

machine and it's the same deal. How come?



BTW: Using Office XP SP3. I tried various combinations of 'compatibility'

options hoping against hope that these would do the trick, but no joy.



Any thoughts? This has =got= to be a simple setting. It -can't- work like

this for everyone, right?



TIA,

Check for updates for your video card driver.

Say what?



I have no formatting issues like this with the same raw HTML in Word,

Publisher, Multi-Edit, Robohelp, and on and on...



And again, I've run into this on multiple machines.



Any other ideas?

But you are working with FrontPage, not Word, Publisher, etc.

Again, shouldn't when I hit <enter>the whole paragraph simply move -down-?

What happens is that every paragraph on the page will indent, some left,

some right.



Really annoying. I -know- it's a bug, because, again, when I go to preview

it looks fine and when I return to the Normal view, everything corrects

itself.



Is this a known bug that was fixed in FP2003?

Where are you seeing this issue, in HTML / Code View? If normal view, then I still think it is a

video card/driver issue.



Never seen or heard of this issue before now.

Arggggh.... I tried replying to this with JPGs demonstrating what is

happening but it appears that this site doesn't allow attachments.



I have tried this on 3 machines: XP Home, XP Pro, W2K and they all behave

the same.
