Product Descriptions

[Guest]

Hi all,

 

I've recently been adding products to my catalogue, and for some reason no matter how much white space I put into my description, it just gets edited out by the control panel!

 

so if i have a description like this:

 

'

line 1

 

line 2

'

 

it will display like this

 

'

line1

line2

'

 

Can someone tell me where i tell oscommerce to allow for white space?

 

thanks

Hi Gary, I am new to OSC but kinda crafty at working php templates by now from other applications.

 

I believe your solution is good old fashioned HTML tag for line break which is:

<br />

You can stack those one right after the other to achieve more spacing or...

 

If you have large description to seperate into paragraphs you can even use:

<p> Your first paragraph text goes here </p>
<p>Your second paragraph text goes here...</p>

To that when rendered in browser... padding gives you the space you need and keeps your code clean.
