Ho to remove the <P> tag produced by the HtmlPlaceholder

[Francis Eric]

Hi guys,

I have a problem on our page, a <P> tag was produce by the HtmlPlaceholder when viewing it on the source code. And that <P> tag makes a white space on the page when viewing it on Firefox browser.

What am I going to do? I want that tag to be remove. Is there a way in removing it?

Below are my codes:

<TR style="MARGIN: -50px 0px 0px">
    <TD style="HEIGHT: 22px" colSpan="2">
        <cms:htmlplaceholdercontrol id="htmlCustomBanner" runat="server" PlaceholderToBind="htmlCustomBanner" EditControlHeight="100" EditControlWidth="533"></cms:htmlplaceholdercontrol>
       <%End If%>
   </TD>
</TR>

View Source Code:
A paragrapg tag will be inserted, please see the text in bold.

<TR style="MARGIN: -50px 0px 0px">
    <TD style="HEIGHT: 22px" colSpan="2">
        <P>
        <cms:htmlplaceholdercontrol id="htmlCustomBanner" runat="server" PlaceholderToBind="htmlCustomBanner" EditControlHeight="100" EditControlWidth="533"></cms:htmlplaceholdercontrol>
        <P>
   </TD>
</TR>


Hope you guys can help on how to remove that Paragraph tag.

Hello Francis,

I see in your code that you are using the standard HTMLPlaceholder control for MCMS so I would suggest to check Microsoft's support about such problem. We've had our own RadEditorPlaceholderControl for MCMS, however this product was discontinued about 3 years ago and we don't support it for more than 2 years.

Thanks George,

Actually this application is existing already. Well I guess I have to change that place holder into a new one. Thanks for your input.
