Breaking after tag problem
There is an automatic line break between tags, I don’t want that. How do I have a tag come in right behind another tag.
Ex. I want the following tags to print out in proper format like:
<code><txp:excerpt /><txp:permlink>text</txp:permlink></code>
and not like the following which is how it is happening:
<code><txp:excerpt />
<txp:permlink>text</txp:permlink></code>
Help pease.

Re: Breaking after tag problem
Your “excerpt” will be wrapped in a “p” tag, which is a block-level element, so the next item, whatever it is, will drop below it. You will need to place the link inside a named “p” tag such as <code><p class=“linktext”><txp:permlink>text</txp:permlink></p></code> and then tell it in your CSS to <code>display: inline;</code> which I think should do the business.

Re: Breaking after tag problem
I have a slightly different issue I need to
<txp:permlink><txp:title />: <txp:excerpt /></txp:permlink>
and have the whole thing display inline (no tag wrapped around the excerpt. I tried to add a class to the excerpt and define the class as display: inline; but that didn’t work.
The reason, if anyone’s interested, is that my “articles” have multiple dates associated with them, which need to be displayed. The best idea I could think of was to put the dates in the excerpt and display it this way. Of course if I can’t defeat the P tag round the excerpt it’s not going to fly.

Yes, I have tried turning it off and on.

It didn’t work for me either, I just grabbed the striptag plug and wrap it around the excerpt call.

You can also turn off Textile for the excerpt (advanced options in the write screen).

Re: Breaking after tag problem
ok… i’m doing this for a whole section, and I can’t turn off textile for every single article…
as for striptags, can someone tell me where go get it . . . the only version I find is GZIPed, and I can’t get GZip to work it’s driving my crazy – since when do plugins need to be encrypted with command-line software??

Re: Breaking after tag problem
Yeah . . . that’s the one I was talking about. The GZIP gave me fits (I’ve got it now). Why someone would feel the need to compress a file that’s <1 KB, and in a format most people can’t open, is beyond me.
