Drupal creates automatic "breaks" - how to stop?
May 08, 2013, 06:17:32 pm
I notice when I update the CSS code to the side bar the layout of that form changed.
Drupal tends to automatically create <br> [breaks] where it deems is suitable.
How can I permanently remove these?
A custom CSS file was developed to override it, it worked until there was more added onto the side bar form and now that same CSS code will not work.

I was wondering if any one knew any work arounds, or had a permanent solution?
 
Thank you in advanced!

I'm not sure what aspect of CiviCRM you are referring to. Are you talking about a Civi block? Or a Drupal block interfering with the Civi page content?
Try asking your question on the new CiviCRM help site.

FETmz, it's not clear what exactly is happening. Can you describe in more detail?

But note that when you enter content into a Block or Node in Drupal, then depending on the Drupal Input Format, Drupal may convert line breaks to <br> tags.

Sorry I apologise, Yes, its when I enter code into the Block, I never manual coded any breaks into the section and yet that's when Drupal automatically adds in the <br> tags.

It was overridden with this small code:

#sideblock br {
   display:none;
}

and worked, until I added more code. Is there a section where I can stop Drupal from automatically entering the <br> tags?

Solution:

Drupal menu -> configuration -> text formats-> [Full HTML] configure -> uncheck the box that say: “Convert line breaks into HTML (i.e. <br> and <p>)”
