colterphoto1 Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 I've had a 'new' Mac for over a year now and since I'm posting more these days, it sure would be handy to have paragraph breaks. What internet software should I use? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhoak Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 I can't speak to the Mac but in the PC world Opera and Chrome both fail the formatting test and Firefox and IE both pass the test. I would suggest trying Firefox first. The other option would be to put a "<p>" between paragraphs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colterphoto1 Posted January 28, 2013 Author Share Posted January 28, 2013 I"m on Mac Safari this is a test of paragraph formatting this should be three paragraphs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colterphoto1 Posted January 28, 2013 Author Share Posted January 28, 2013 oh thanks, that wasn't so hard. Just for kicks and speed, what are the Mac guys using? I've not had any Safari issues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

picky Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 Michael: Try Open Office 3.0; it's free and 3.0 runs on Mac OS X: Info Linky. Download Linky.Try writing it in Open Office and just paste it into your web browser of choice. -Glenn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oscarsear Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 Y'know........ it is more than the inconvenience. It reflects on the company as well. I run a Mac......... No other site I use fails to recognize paragraphs. That includes my rinky dink local newspaper comments section and blogs. This ONLY happens on these Klipsch Forums. Do they drive covered wagons to work? I dunno mebbe it is some sort of 'analog' statement. My posts will all be in one huge paragraph. I guess I should be happy they use 'periods' and other forms of common punctuation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Audio Android Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 I run Mac OS X 10.6.8. The only way I can get a paragraph space is by using the greater and less than arrows <> with a P in the middle technique. That's the ONLY way it will work with my MAC.

Marvel Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 To make it easier, if you don't do it already, is while using the greater and less than arrows <> with a P in the middle: Highlight and copy the three characters (Command-C) and simply do a Command-C to paste it in place. It is easier than having to constantly type the three characters. I suppose you could also do a macro and tie it to a function key, but you get the idea.

Mighty Favog Posted February 2, 2013 Share Posted February 2, 2013 FWIW - The Kindle Fire (first edition) doesn't do hyperlinking or paragraph breaks. [:@] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SilverSport Posted February 2, 2013 Share Posted February 2, 2013 I had not noticed this on this forum while using Safari and Mountain Lion...but now I know... Bill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ivanhurd Posted February 2, 2013 Share Posted February 2, 2013 It's something to get used to, but I find that my posts aren't normally long enough to require new paragraphs so I'm not too annoyed by it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
