Hi!
I'm getting blank lines when I do the html edit / save in composer.
If I uncheck the " Preserve original source formatting" I get rid of the extra lines between the <meta> tags, but then composer re-formats my html. all my nice indenting disappears.
paragraphs get put on multiple lines so what used to be a two line paragraph becomes five.
<a href="xxxx etc" > tags get split into
<a
href="xxxx etc">
and blank lines get added into the link text.
Is there any way to get composer to leave the html alone entirely?

Re: Composer adds blank lines between </title> and <met
this answer may have provided a solution in the past but currently it does not.
Checking "Preserve Original Source Formatting" puts extra lines in <meta> area.
Unchecking "Preserve Original Source Formatting" puts extra lines in the html area. (also, reflows a href tags, link text, and paragraph content)
what can be done so that composer leaves the markup language and the content alone entirely?

Re: Composer adds blank lines between </title> and <met
well, with the 'preserve original source formatting' checked, I am noticing random multiplying blank lines in the code (usually in the middle of the text for an a href link) and then there's random not formatting -- where I copy and paste in the html version of composer and all the blanks and tabs get stripped out.
as part of a workaround, would it be possible to simply call notepad as the editor? and if so, how? (from w/in seamonkey as opposed to opening it up outside SeaMonkey)

This extension I made might help (although you have to open the file in Composer first, then use the toolbar button.)
