Default Double Line Spacing

Hi,

I have changed my Outlook settings so that it doesn't use Word to compose
email messages. This is a requirement so that I can use Sage ACT!
functionality. The problem is that my signature now appears with double
line spacing. If I set it to compose as plain text as opposed to HTML
this solves the problem, except for when I reply to an HTML email. Can
anyone explain why this is happening?

Thanks


The HTML for your sig probably wraps each line in Pwhatever text/P
tags. Default CSS styles for the P[aragraph] tag cause this to display as
if there is a blank line between each line of text. To fix it, edit the
HTML directly to remove the P at the beginning of each line, and replace
the /P at the end of each line with BR (the breaking line tag.)

It is possible that there may not be any /P (closing paragraph) tags
there. (They are required by W3C spec, but many browsers will render
adequately without them.) If that's the case, you'll have to wing it a
bit, just get rid of the opening P tags and place a BR where ever a
new line should begin.
