	Interesting. Shows what a big difference a proper editor can make. ;-)

	I see two things (three really). The two lines can be replaced with
"<p></p>" or better yet "<br>". The "&#12288;" doesn't need to be there.
It looks like it might be a UTF8 character (16 bit encoding instead of 7
or 8). Bill was saying the editor he was using (which shall remain
nameless) wouldn't let him make changes like that. I use OO.O 1.1.3 and
have no problems substituting hand tweaked code for that generated by the
editor. I'll try updating to OO.O 2.X today and see if the same thing
applies.
