Default Windows XP notepad

I write webpages using notepad.

I wrote several pages, then used WS_FTP Pro to upload the pages. Now I need
to edit some of them, so I have downloaded the files back onto my PC again
using WS_FTP Pro.

While I edit the files, everything look just fine, until I save the files.
After I save the files, all of the text in the file becomes one long line
instead of having it in a "paragraph" form as before the save.

Does anyone know why this is happening?

These are files that I have to update from time to time, and this will make
it extremly hard to make my updates with the text in this format.

Again, I am using Win XP, wordpad with wordwrap on and WS_FTP Pro.

If there is a newsgroup better suited for this question, please let me know.

Thanks...

Chuck

That's Notepad default - click on Format-wordwrap.

Why don't you edit the original file on your computer, then overwrite the
file on the server?
