you can put two line returns in the XML field, or if that is not what you want then. Try this

Thanks for the reply Tony, first of all can u plz elaborate on the line return character u are talking about, with an example becaz i have tried it doesnt work for me, i mean with quotes or without qoues, as for the custom tag, i guess that wont give the solution, becaz when u use the custom tag, it automatically places the following contents on a new paragraph whereever used, thats something implicit in custom tag.

Thanks in advance.

The return character i was talking about is just hitting enter twice.
Normally just hitting enter should give you a new line in a XML field.

What are you trying to achieve?
