<txp:body /> without <p> tags

Hi Everybody,

I’m starting with my first textpattern website. But now i have a big problem, I have already search on this forum, but i can’t find the solution.

So, i have an article in textpattern, like this:

this is text in an article, more text in this article, this is text in an article, more text in this article, this is text in an article, more text in this article

<h2>title text</h2>

this is text in an article, more text in this article, this is text in an article, more text in this article, this is text in an article, more text in this article

<ul>
<li>test</li>
<li>test</li>
</ul>

this is the end of the article.

So, i used <p><txp:body /></p> to show the article, but now there is something wrong :(. If i look to the source i see textpattern placed a few <p> tags? I don’t now how i can fix this. Now is my source code:

<p><p>this is text in an article, more text in this article, this is text in an article, more text in this article, this is text in an article, more text in this article</p>

<p><h2>title text</h2></p>

<p>this is text in an article, more text in this article, this is text in an article, more text in this article, this is text in an article, more text in this article</p>

<p><ul>
<li>test</li>
<li>test</li>
</ul></p>

<p>this is the end of the article. </p></p>

How can I solve this problem? Many, many, many thanks for the solution!

Best Regards,
Helena

Re: <txp:body /> without <p> tags

You’ve applied superfluous HTML tags in several places:

Remove the <p>s around the body tag. Don’t use HTML in articles.

Or, if you can’t avoid using HTML in articles, set the “Article markup” menu to “Leave text untouched”. Edit: (Doesn’t save you, though, from removing the <p>s around <txp:body />)

But I recommend learning Textile: there’s a small cheat sheet already top left hand side of the Write panel, “Textile help”. Textile outputs correct markup and is faster to write than HTML. In Textile, your input would look like this:

this is text in an article, more text in this article, this is text in an article, more text in this article, this is text in an article, more text in this article

 h2. title text

this is text in an article, more text in this article, this is text in an article, more text in this article, this is text in an article, more text in this article

 * test
 * test

this is the end of the article.

I’ve used spaces before h2 and the list items just to not let this forums Textile function swallow the Textile commands. So if you copy the code remove these spaces before saving the article.

By default articles use Textile formatting for their body content. If don’t want that, you can disable it in the article editor by changing the Article markup option in advanced options.
