[Solved] disappearing line breaks

[Igor Kalders]

I keep having problems with disappearing line breaks.

For instance, in a empty project with the latest RadEditor in IE8:

In html mode write this:

<p>first line</p>
<p>second line </p>

In design you'll get

first line

second line

Place your cursor on the third line before the word "second" and press enter 3 times for instance.
This will result in this code in html view:

<p>first line</p>
<p ><br />
<br />
second line </p>

If you then switch between design and html view over and over, every time one <br /> will dissapear!

Why is this?!

Hi Igor,

The observed behavior when toggling between Design and Html mode is due to the content optimization RemoveExtraBrakes filter of RadEditor which strips all extra brakse inside some tags like p, h1, etc.
To disable this behavior, please, put the following javascript code after the RadEditor declaration:

<telerik:radeditor runat="server" ID="RadEditor1"></telerik:radeditor>
<script type="text/javascript">
Telerik.Web.UI.Editor.RemoveExtraBrakes.prototype.getHtmlContent = function(content)
{
    return content;
}
Telerik.Web.UI.Editor.StripJunkFilter.prototype.getHtmlContent = function(content)
{
    return content;
}
</script>

All the best,
