Thread:Project:Support desk/Paragraph breaks being messed up when passed as template parameter (MW 1.17)

Hi-

I have a template on my wiki (currently on my localhost; sorry I can't link to the problem directly) which needs to be able to accept multi-paragraph parameters. When it does, however, it doesn't display them properly. If there is one blank line between the two paragraphs, they get merged together just like they would if there are no blank lines. If there are two blank lines, empty paragraph tags are inserted between the two paragraphs, which aren't wrapped in their own paragraph tags, causing an excessive amount of space between them. Adding paragraph tags manually seems to work, but isn't ideal for obvious reasons. Note that the template does add a &lt;div&gt; tag around the text being displayed, but I don't see why that should affect anything.

Thanks!
