# Event Description – HTML?

 * The event description doesn’t accept HTML, so spaces and line changes are non-
   existent, so in the pop-up it looks like one long run-on sentence.
 * Any little css tricks to overcome that?

 * Currently all HTMl is stripped out by the WP security sanitization routines. 
   There are no CSS tricks, but I am looking into changing how this is handled to
   allow at least some new lines in there.

 * I’ve seen plugins overcome this by making TinyMCE or other such text editor the
   default. Way above my paygrade :).

 * Version 3.0.5 is now available, and should allow new lines to be preserved in
   the event description.

 * That’s a winner:)
 * Thanks
 * Using (width:auto height:auto) and the popups always look good now.
