It definitely shouldn't do that. It may be in the wrong place, but we can find out pretty quick.

Where are you putting your  ? In the wysiwyg, a text field, the viewer code, etc?

Let me know and we'll track this down.

I had copied some of my existing html code from an existing page and dumped it into the viewer code.

In one instance the code looked something like this:

<p>&nbsp;&nbsp; blah blah blah &nbsp;&nbsp;--&nbsp;&nbsp; blah blah blah</p>



When looked at it in the wysiwyg it looked as I expected. However, when viewed on the site with IE or Firefox it looked like this:

BB blah blah blah BB--BB blah blah blah

When I removed the &nbsp; code the Bs went away. Ideas??

Have a look at:

http://www.crcongregation.org/newsletter.php for an example of the Bs. :)
Have a nice day....

Yikes for sure! That's no good!

What text or webpage editor are you using? My guess is that somewhere along the way (webpage editor, ftp program, web browser) those characters are getting translated.

Can you attach the newsletter.php? My "guess" is the &nbsp; aren't even in the file anymore. Either that or something really strange is going on with the server.

See if you can attach newsletter.php and I'll take a look at that. Or email (don't post - email) login details to me at dave@interactivetools.com and I can login and take a look at what's going on on the server.

Hope that helps! Don't worry. We'll get it figured out, we're here to support you!

HiYa Dave,

Have a look at http://www.crcongregation.org/calendar.php

Some strange looking stuff there. Look at the date 2/24/08, nothing strange there. Then look at all the other dates, 2/27/08... etc.... strange stuff there.

On the 2/24/08 portion, there is never more than 1 space, ie, 1 press of the space bar in the wigsig view, between words/charters. It displays as expected.

All the others have more than 1 space bar presses. This is when the weridness appears.

I have emailed you my userid and pw for CMSB. Note that the menu choice Worship Schedule it the item in question.

Thanks for your help.
Have a nice day....

This happened to one of our sites as well early on. The fix?
