Nesting <p> tag being created when using Add Paragrah button in IE

[Arjun]

When using Add Paragraph button in the HTML editor, if the paragraph is inside a table cell, then we will create some <p> tag nested within another <p> tag. HTML standard doesn't support <p> nested inside another <p> tag. 

Steps to reproduce,

1. Create a 1 cell table, add some text to the table cell in any HTML editor

2. Now select the text and click center align icon , increase the fornt, change the font -> switch to HTML view and you will notice the <p align> being added

3. Go back to the design view -> Click on the empty space between aligned text -> click on "Enter" to go to next line >  Click the Add Paragraph icon twice -> You should have the nested <P> tag. I've put the result HTML code in the comment section.

 

The datatags marked in yellow is nested inside datatag marked in red, this should not be the case.

 This datatag is in IE

<P>

<TABLE>

    <TBODY>

        <TR>

            <TD>

            <P align=left>&nbsp;<SPAN style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Palatino Linotype', 'Book Antiqua', Palatino, serif; FONT-SIZE: 16px">this is my final <BR>

            <P>&nbsp;</P>

            <P>&nbsp;</P>

            <P>&nbsp;</P>

            <P  align=left>text</P>

            </SPAN></P>

            <P align=left>&nbsp;</P>

            </TD>

        </TR>

    </TBODY>

</TABLE>

</P>


The nested P tag is creating random issues in the past and it's creating junk code under some circumstances.  Can we fix this?

Hi,

It seems that you have disabled the ConvertToXhtml filter of RadEditor. You should enable it so that RadEditor validates and corrects the produced content.
