in thread Problem with CODE tags

I use Opera too and I get the same problem. When you submit, Opera seems to add a ^M to the end of each \n, so the problem actually gets worse and worse every time you preview (double the newlines every time). You can actually delete the extraneous ^Ms cos although you can't see them, they're on the end of every line, so if you go to the end of the line and get rid of any whitespace you shouldn't see this problem.

    Unfortunately, I have been having this problem ever since I began using Opera, and tried to post code snippets througout various questions. Like what was said earlier, I have found that adding in the code after previewing tends to be faster than having to manually deleting every extra new line, especially if you have a very long question :-).

    Aside from that, the first I saw that there was something wrong with my code, it was funny, because each time I previewed it, it kept growing more spaced, and more spaced, and more spaced... it was funny, but you'd have to have been there.
