Extra Lines Inserted When Using Insert Code Snippet Plugin For Windows Live Writer

Tuesday, November 4th, 2008

Not many geeky blogs can get away without delivering some real juice via example code and certainly not this one. If you happen to be Live writer then you can’t ask for much more than the almighty “Insert Code Snippet” plugin by Leo Vildosola. Couple of weeks ago something (coupled with lots of WTFs) happened and the output started to have lines inserted between each line of code. Arrrgh yuk! I found that switching view in WLW to HTML view allows me to manually delete the inserted line but as soon as you return to normal view the brat is back at play. The only work around I’ve manage to get working is to edit the Markup Types to HTML in “Edit Weblog Setting”->Advanced instead of XHTML (default). The code seems to stay tight even after you post it onto the blogger though I now think it might be an issue with WLW.
