<Problem With <P> Tag in GENERAL Doctype>
Has anyone encoutered the following error with the <P> tag?
The first time it is used after a <HEAD1> or <HEAD2>, it
creates a new paragraph, but does not skip a line. Subsequent
<P> tags in the first or second level section do create a new
paragraph and do skip a line.
Has anyone encountered this problem and does anyone have a
workaround? Thanks

Are you sure that you followed the <head>(...) tag with a <p> tag?
If you follow a <head> tag with text, then use a <p> tag,
the <p> tag is mixed up about what it is doing. This is incorrect:
<head1>(The Meaning of Life)
This section presents the meaning of life in seven simple ...
This is correct:
<head1>(The Meaning of Life)
<p> This section presents the meaning of life in seven simple ...
If you don't have the <p> to identify the text that follows the
<head> tag, the NEXT <p> gets messed up. Was that the problem?

Also, your doctype may specify that there is no vertical space between the head and the first line of text. In any event, the <p> tag is needed for the reason Bill gave. | |||||
