Double line breaks

[Shanthony]

Whenever a commenter pushes enter in their comment it shows up as two <br> which is this really huge space. I would like the space to be smaller and only show up as one <br> in the comment section. Does anyone have this problem. is this a problem with the code or my css?

An example of the huge break is alex's comment. Help me!

Hi!
I'm having the same problem.
using version 1.5 it adds two line breaks everytime a commenter hits ENTER. I checked the index page but cannot find what I should change.
thanks for any help!

Finally i was able to fix it!

What i did is to change 2 lines of the index.php:

// $message     $message = clean(nl2br($_POST['message']));
		$message = isset($_POST['message']) ? $_POST['message'] : "";
		$message = clean_comment($message);
		$message = nl2br($message);

change last line for: $message = clean($message);

// $message		
	$message = isset($_POST['message']) ? $_POST['message'] : "";
	$message = clean_comment($message);
	$message = nl2br($message);

change last line for: $message = clean($message);

I don't know why. I found it trying (i'm not an expert)... but i think it's working. I'm using it at the moment and i haven't had any problem.
Luck!!

About which versions of PP did you all talk??

[washy21]

Just to let you know that this solution has now worked for me.

PP 1.5

Just solved mine too. Thanks for sharing!

Thanks! You can all just do this, it really works! Even if you type six enters in a row, there's just one white line!

This didn't work for me. I'm running PP 1.5. Any other suggestions?

EDIT: Never mind. I think it's working now. It just wasn't correcting old comments, but it seems to work on new ones.

Clear the cache?? I think all comments should format the same after this change.
Just a guess.

Anyone knows how to fix it for 1.6 version?

I tryed to do the same as i did with the other versions but seems it doesn't work...

I have done that:

/includes/functions_comments.php (line 74)

// $message
$message = isset($_POST['message']) ? $_POST['message'] : "";
$message = clean_comment($message);
$message = preg_replace("/((\x0D\x0A){3,}|[\x0A]{3,}|[\x0D]{3,})/","\n\n",$message);
$message = nl2br($message);

I have changed the last line to: $message = clean($message);
