Umm, can I just ask, I spent hours formatting this right, and it hasn't worked on the website. Is something going wrong, or...?
I put the [p] tag (with the right brackets) inbetween every line, and in the bits that had larger gaps between them, like different scenes/paragraphs, etc, I used the p tag repeatedly, and I thought it would have picked it up.
Can anyone check this out, because otherwise the formatting is just... totally wrong, really, and really confusing to read. :(
There was a problem with the p tags. I put up what you had, but it needed closing tags -- and for the lines with extra space, the opening and closing p tags can't be empty. The usual thing to do is enclose a non-breaking space between them, which is what I added here (along with closing tags). If you want a copy of the document back with the tags in it, please let me know. And please take a look to make sure everything came out OK. I compared it to the original document, and it looks right but I want to make sure. I'm sorry I didn't catch it when I posted it!
Also, may I say, mystery author, that this is a most excellent story? I am in awe of the scenes you draw. I think I will not forget the sight of olives in the grass or the different colored houses, or the sounds that both of them make in the throes of passion. Excellent story! :-D
Ah, I'm sorry. I had no idea how the [p] tags worked. I just assumed that it needed to be [p] <- that between every line you wanted extra spaced, and didn't know they had to be closed.
The only thing that's still wrong, apart from a few missed spaces, but it would be too much hassle to do it again I think ^^; is the e-mail exchange. I think the site might not have picked it up, but the bits at the start were meant to have one line on each new line, if that makes sense. In my word document, that extract looked like this:

I hate you. You know I don't speak a word of Italian.
If I ask the maid what it means, will I get into trouble?

All fixed. Just for the future so you know, to get single-spaced lines, you have to put the br tag (open and close) at the end of each line where you want the next line to come up right underneath it. If you see anything else, I'm more than happy to fix it. Just let me know. :-)
