   I have been tweaking the css on my blog... but somewhere allong the line the paragraph spaces stopped showing.

   Can anyone determine which style has interfered?

   heres the blog http://contra.net.au/blastcorp/?page_id=7

   The css file here: http://contra.net.au/blastcorp/wp-content/plugins/wp-shopping-cart/thickbox.css has this bit of code *{padding: 0; margin: 0;} at the top. This code says "all elements have no margin or padding". I would use a workaround of putting p{margin-bottom:1em} directly on the line below it. I am not certain if this will interfere with thickbox or not.

   suburose: Then you didn't do it right, because adding p{margin-bottom:1em} to your CSS file does work. I just tried it on my browser and it spaced out your posts nicely.

   Make sure you're editing the CSS file for your theme.

   does it matter where you put the code? is it supposed to go in the style sheet or somewhere else?

   edit: i just tried it again and it did nothing on my web browser. i have cleared all caches and restarted and still nothing...

   In the stylesheet.

   i just tried it again and nothing. would it have something to do with firefox?

   EDIT: i went in to IE Explorer to see if it made a difference, but now the left sidebar disappears on the home page (but shows on the about and "my story" pages). sigh...

   It looks like the page is working fine to me. Using Firefox.

   The right sidebar is moved down in IE6, but that's a separate problem.

   i just went to the creators page for the theme and found the right piece of code. this is what he suggested:

   }
   .entry p {
   padding-bottom: 1.0em;
   }

   and that worked perfectly.

    Hi!

    I have similar problem with IE (displays perfectly in Firefox).

    The content of my blog somehow has no paragraph spacings and it's all in 'bold'!

    I inserted *{padding: 0; margin: 0;} and it worked!!! Thanks mfields for the tips!

    Still can't get rid of the bold though :( The font appears 'bigger' than it's supposed to as well.

    Any advice?

    Thanks heaps!!
