What's the trick to the spacing thing?

I've posted a fiew threads now and I never could figure out how to get the propper spacing in my messages. Especally when I was typing lyrics.

I have seen others do this beautifully.

Can anyone tell me the secret to it?

Hi, Megan - I'm thinking the spaces you need are from one line to the next - that's an HTML line break, which looks like this:

<br>


Put one at the end of every line where you don't want Mudcat to automatically word-rap to fit all the open space that's there.
If you want even spacing between letters, like for typing chords, that's a different matter, and a bit more complicated. It was the line breaks you needed, right? Feel free to practice in this thread.

Hey Megan!
It works!
You should try it.
I hope you don't mind my writing on your thread (above posting), but I have been trying to figure that out for such a long time. I hadn't gotten around to asking.
I'm glad you did.

Kathy
