Product description text spacing and paragraphs

Hi, I just want to make sure I'm doing the right thing here,

I have some products with really long descriptions, I put the description into a plain html file in dreamweaver and copy and paste the code (with all the breaks etc so that there are spaces and paragraphs in the right place) into the product description when i insert a new product in the zen admin, it seems to work fine but I just want to make sure this is ok as I've heard copying and pasting from dreamweaver isnt always a good idea.

If so, instead shall I just put the text into a plain text doc and then put in all the <br> etc in and then copy and paste this into the prod description?

Thanks

If it looks OK on your site, I'd say you're good.

Using DW may end up adding extra tags and stuff to your copy, using more disk space, but other than that, it shouldn't be a problem.

Brilliant, thank you :smile:

Some other programs, such as MS Word, are less benign. They can put proprietary formatting into a page that will cause errors when copied into an HTML page like a description or ez-page.
