Why do I get hundreds of empty lines?

Re: Why do I get hundreds of empty lines?No, the "bloat" created this
way is often nil, and always minimal.
The Word doc. saved as HTML contains a lot more extra code, even when
saved as "Web page, filtered"

You certainly will get a lot of extra code when you do like this.

The best way to bring a Word file into FP is to drag the .doc
file from Windows Explorer onto an open page in FP. That
way, you can keep all your text formatting and you won't get
emplty lines or extra coding. Do not convert the file to html
using Word. That won't work as well.

Sorry but I must come back to this issue again.
One of the advantages with Microsoft is the possibility to
interact
and cross using for instance the Office package.
Now, I often write long texts in Word, using the formatting facility,
references and so on. So far I have either saved this documents as
doc- and
htm-format, imported the htm-files to FrontPage and put them up in the
in-built navigation menu (look at www.whiplashinfo.se). Simple and
convenient.
The other way has been to copy and paste texts from Word to

FrontPage.
But -

I found that by doing this, the text is surrounded by a frame, and the
navigation menu doesn't show up. The only way to solve this
trouble
with losing the navigation menu has been to copy all the text, but
leave out the
last formatting carry return.
The hundreds and thousands of empty lines - all without any
visible
code at
all - continue to trouble me.

Re: Why do I get hundreds of empty lines?My site is www.dipika.org. All of
the articles were edited in MS Word and dragged onto the page. If you have
time, please look at some of the code. If I am getting bloated code, I would
like to know about it. I have never found any, and neither has anyone else
who has looked at it.

It's a great time saver.

OK Wally, I'll test your suggestion and come back with feedback.
