Two problems when html formatting descriptions

Hi, im having two problems when giving html format to my descriptions.

The first one happens on the product_new page. The situation is that this page is showing the description with the formatting and this is causing a mess on my store.

What can I do to tell this page to show the descriptions in plain text?

And the next problem is related to the description itself for each product, whenever i choose a bigger font it shows ok in the admin preview but when I try to view the product in the product page the spacing between lines is very small causing an overlapping I tried to change the stylesheet.css specifically

TD.main, P.main {

font-family: Verdana, Arial, sans-serif;

font-size: 11px;

line-height: 1.5;

}

 

But nothing happened

admin css is different than browser css , so it will display differently in the preview.

Also, try to use existing classes or add classes to the css to meet your html descriptions needs, less <font size= color= align> to get slapped around by your existing css when you use things like html tags already declared in the css

Thanks for your explanation but I´m very new to this, is there a way you can give me step by step instructions on how to fix this?

vzert, you can copy your stylesheet styles from your main stylesheet into your admin stylesheet. Pick a couple to try first.

Hello vzert,

 

I use tables (html) in description and it is very simple. No problem with fonts, sizes or spaces. Try it!

Tables were useful for fixing the descriptions on my new products page but im still unable to fix the other issue. Any advice on this?
