All I want is to do paragraphs. I don't want italics, or times new roman, or coloured fonts. Help!

I mean jesus god.I did a slightly funny response to a post of Lady Tuscan, which depended a bit on mimicking here use of separate paras. You know, sentences separated by a return.When I posted the thing it came out in a runon paragraph. All structure, all decency, all respect for our war wounded heroes was gone. The thing looked like a pancake with a prolapsed rectum, only miserable.What the fuck do I have to do to get paragraphing to work?

If you are on an iPad it iPhone you need to type. For a break. For a new paragraph you type (p)(br)(/p) but replace all the ( and ) with these This will start a new paragraph and the code will be invisible.

The code disappears. Replace with > instead of ( . For a break (br) New paragraph (p)(br)(/p) . Copy and paste it.

Half the time RHP can't even handle my colour. Red and bold, like Beaujolais, remember?

Thank you all so much, and it all really worked well. I followed all the advice and 'let me not to the marriage of true minds' now reads; (0) p/p ........ This is, clearly, a massive improvement, but my learning clearly has a little way to go. I had some red from the Beaujolais region at Sixpenny, and it was terrific, not at all like Beaujolais Nouveau but all deep and mysterious and spooky. The prolapsed rectum was sad, but it was learning and gaining virtue from its sadness. It had been shriven, so shrove Tuesday was no use to it.

I share your pain. I posted a thing on a humourous thread, full of funnies to make my forum friends giggle. My idevice completely mangled it and I haven't had the heart to return to the thread to face the wrath. Damned phone.

The paragraph code is too long to remember. Although I suppose you can copy and paste it. I often just do the break code twice for a new paragraph. And anything you put in these things. > and < always disappear so I always look like a knob end trying to explain it!!! Grrrr
