I am running drupal 4.7 and am having a recurring problem with the TinyMCE editor. I create a page, submit it, and it looks fine when published. However, when I return to edit the page, I find that empty lines (designated by TinyMCE with <p></p>) are stripped out. I have to re-edit the entire page and add any extra spaces that have been stripped.

This problem seems to occur only in Internet Explorer, but sporadically. I would say 90% of the time I lose all blank lines, while 10% of the time it selectively deletes blank lines. Firefox does not seem to have this problem.

I have done a lot of searching on this topic and have not been able to find a solution that works for me. One thing I am trying is adding the HTMLTidy module, but I have not been able to get it successfully installed yet. Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks

I had the same problem, my solution was to set it to off in the settings, with an "enable rich text" link to turn it on. That way if someone just wants to jott a note they can.. if they want nice fonts and stuff, they will learn to use rich text link.
