I've had trouble in the past with line break converter in TinyMCE, FCKeditor or WYSIWYG, especially with custom text areas. But I finally solved the problem on most of my sites (FCK is working fine). Most except one, because I have a critical problem with a site : no p or br in the output. I tried everything (solutions that work on my other sites of course). But nothing doing. Does it mean my database is corrupt? Is there a table to fix it? Has anyone ever experienced this kind of problem? I currently use the latest FCKeditor (but not CKeditor).
It's really irritating for users.
Thanks

The problem is that in the “input formats” option you have “Line break converter" - Converts line breaks into HTML .” selected. The WYSIWYG editor does not convert these spaces to line breaks so that's why in the editor view looks like the text is all together in one line. If you turn the Line break converter off in the inputs format option, all the pages you've edited will be formatted incorrectly.

If you start out with a new site then its probably better to turn it off and let folks make the line breaks with the WYSIWYG editor.

God, how I despise Drupal right now!!!
