The new server is an AMD Athlon XP 2000+ downclocked to 650Mhz, with 512MB DDR Dual channel on 100Mhz, the low clockrates are because of the energy usage ;). ... it’s about time, because most of the configs where a bit messy. Not all things working yet, I expect them to do by the end of the week.
``` * Im guessing that because of those you dont have normal line breaks. * Thread Starter [stijnspijker](https://wordpress.org/support/users/stijnspijker/) * (@stijnspijker) * [18 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/posts-overflowing/#post-586861) * by the way, I’m working on my firewall right now, so you might experience some outage on the site. * I appreciate you looking though, and I’m checking this page at least once a minute 🙂 * –reply to above– I have forced nothing, I made a new post using just Write, and typing some text.. Nothing I wouldn’t do normally anyway.. * I don’t see any myself though, which browser do you use? * [Marcel Brinkkemper](https://wordpress.org/support/users/macbrink/) * (@macbrink) * [18 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/posts-overflowing/#post-586874) * forced spaces are the ` ` non breaking space. In your browser, they look just like a normal space except they don’t do a line break. If you use ‘just Write’ you are copying a lot of extra code into yur post. Just write your post in the WordPress editor or in a plain text editor like notepad. * Thread Starter [stijnspijker](https://wordpress.org/support/users/stijnspijker/) * (@stijnspijker) * [18 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/posts-overflowing/#post-586882) * By just write, I meant the wordpress editor :). The ‘Write’ link in the admin page. * Anyways, I upgraded to WordPress 2.2.1 and indeed there are some strange characters as spaces on the lines that overflow. * I’ll try to check it out in the database, I’ll post when it’s solved 🙂 * Thread Starter [stijnspijker](https://wordpress.org/support/users/stijnspijker/) * (@stijnspijker) * [18 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/posts-overflowing/#post-586886) * [SOLVED] * Okay, indeed removing the weird characters solves the problem. I suspect that the new server is to blame, since I now run a complete en_US.UTF-8 server, and that is what probably distorted the database. * [icecoyote](https://wordpress.org/support/users/icecoyote/) * (@icecoyote) * [18 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/posts-overflowing/#post-586988) * I’m having the same problem of overflowing lines but this happened since I upgraded to 2.2.1. I posted on my blog 2 days ago when I was still using 2.1.3 and everything was fine. My first post with 2.2.1 gave me overflowing lines. * Not sure what to look for in order to fix this…can someone give me a hint? My blog is in french and I use accented letters like éèà, etc… * [whooami](https://wordpress.org/support/users/whooami/) * (@whooami) * [18 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/posts-overflowing/#post-586989) * icecoyote, * you have the same thing going on, use the “view source” in your favorite browser: * `Brière était co-capitaine à Buffalo, ca veut donc dire qu’il a une bonne dose de leadership& nbsp;entre les deux oreilles.

I never got this problem before and I write my posts in WordPress using the Visual editor. What should I do? * And by the way, when checking the source in Opera, it doesn’t give me the extra nbsp coding: *Brière était co-capitaine à Buffalo, ca veut donc dire qu’il a une bonne dose de leadership entre les deux oreilles.

Does it happen with every new post you write in the Visual editor? * [icecoyote](https://wordpress.org/support/users/icecoyote/) * (@icecoyote) * [18 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/posts-overflowing/#post-586999) * Well I wouldn’t be able to say it happens with every post, but since upgrading to 2.2.1 it happened with the only post I tried to write using the visual editor. * I copied/pasted the post in notepad, then recopied/repasted it from notepad to the visual editor and everything was ok after that. * But I wouldn’t want to have to write my posts in notepad everytime…defeats the point of having the blog do it for you in the first place. * Any other ideas on why this is happening? * [Marcel Brinkkemper](https://wordpress.org/support/users/macbrink/) * (@macbrink) * [18 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/posts-overflowing/#post-587001) * Have you checked if it happens with other browsers?
