| Re: HTML showing in your "From the owner" description? | Primekid | 9/8/12 1:16 PM | Thank you for the information. I just discovered that occurring on my page as well.

| Re: HTML showing in your "From the owner" description? | `Keenan | 9/25/12 9:43 AM | The HTML tags are gone, but there is no formatting. What looks nice and readable inside the backend, with bullets and spaces between lines, is just one single block of text. |

| Re: HTML showing in your "From the owner" description? | Primekid | 9/25/12 11:24 AM | Thank you for the follow-up. Yes, the lack of tags is much better.
