Hi Jaap,

I tested with rev705, guess was too early with updating.. I tested again with rev706 and it works perfect this time, great! So no need to roll back i.m.o.


Well, perhaps it is an idea to have the export replace two empty lines by one <br> (and three empty lines by two <br>, etc... but leave the rule that one empty line is ignored). That would allow people to insert a larger break (more white space) between paragraphs or headings in the Zim notebook which would then also be reflected in the exported html pages.

PLease make sure you have rev706 when testing.


Maybe I should roll back partly and put the CSS solution in our HTML templates?

Regards,

Jaap

Another option would be to replace empty lines by <p></p>? Html pages generated that way resemble more the way the text looks in Zim (tested in Firefox and Chrome), which is because these browsers seem to ignore empty paragraphs.

      far as I can see, empty line between two paragraphs are not
      exported. Two empty lines between paragraphs are exported as one
      break. I think that would be the best option in terms of how easy
      it is to regulate the appearance of the html page through CSS).

Downside is that some rendering may look different than in the source page if you have additional blank lines, but best I can do with the HTML assumptions for line spacing.
