Default Parse paragraphs in profile fields

Hi All,

Does anyone know of a way to parse paragraphs in profile fields? For instance, if I were to enter 2 paragraphs into a profile field, it would show as one paragraph. See here:

Quote:
Governor Dinwiddie rewarded Washington in 1755 with a commission as "Colonel of the Virginia Regiment and Commander in Chief of all forces now raised in the defense of His Majesty's Colony" and gave him the task of defending Virginia's frontier. The Virginia Regiment was the first full-time American military unit in the colonies (as opposed to part-time militias and the British regular units). Washington was ordered to "act defensively or offensively" as he thought best.


In command of a thousand soldiers, Washington was a disciplinarian who emphasized training. He led his men in brutal campaigns against the Indians in the west; in 10 months units of his regiment fought 20 battles, and lost a third of its men. Washington's strenuous efforts meant that Virginia's frontier population suffered less than that of other colonies; Ellis concludes "it was his only unqualified success" in the war.
This becomes one paragraph:

Any ideas? Thanks. :-)

I created a multi line profile field and entered 2 paragraphs of text, and they seemed to stay as two paragraphs. How did you enter it, did you copy and paste from somewhere?

A link to view the actual problem would help also (so we can view the page source).
