For the paragraph breaks you need to add them ...

The Plain Text is just that, plain text, and does not "hear" the paragraph breaks and you need to put them in ...

Re: Spacing out paragraphs on pages

Web browsers don't recognize "whitespace." So, to make a browser recognize extra spacing you have to use either line breaks or special characters.

IE:

Space:   <---special character to designate whitespace

Inside PHP You can use Carriage Returns: '/n/r' <--/n is a lewline /r is a "return" key to a browser.

Linebreak in HTML: <br > Will cause a line break in the text.

So:
Paragraph 1. Paragraph 1. Paragraph 1. Paragraph 1. Paragraph 1. Paragraph 1. Paragraph 1. Paragraph 1. Paragraph 1. Paragraph 1. Paragraph 1. Paragraph 1. Paragraph 1.
<br ><br >
Paragraph2.Paragraph2.Paragraph2.Paragraph2.Paragraph2.Paragraph2.Paragraph2.Paragraph2.Paragraph2.Paragraph2.Paragraph2.Paragraph2.

Will be as it's shown.

Re: Spacing out paragraphs on pages

What version of Zen Cart are you using?

What version of php?

Can you give an example of what you are trying to use that is not working?
