Can't seem to get the indent button (in the WYSIWYG editor) to work in Firefox 3.0 WinXP SP2. Usually (in other websites or desktop editor) after selecting part of text to indent and pressing the button will do the job, but nothin happens. Bug?

Hmm, seeing something similar on my end.  Let me test it a bit more and see if something is behind it.  :)

Hey Bowo - we found the culprit.  It seems that because we've kept using <br> tags in lieu of TinyMCE's (our wysiwyg toolbar editor) recommended use of <p> tags, it was causing issues with the indent feature.  TinyMCE lists out several good reasons for using <p> - and upon reading it, I think we can safely switch over to using paragraph tags instead of line break.  Take a look - Why P instead of BR?

This fix will be in development cycle Release 29, and should be out within the next few days.  :)

Goodie! Good to know why paragraph tag is chosen and good to know that BR tag can still be used when needed via the HTML code editing. Thanks Honore! :)
