title: Typo3: How to remove empty paragraphs on page
body: <p>I'm using Typo3 v6.1 to create a standard page of the type “text”. In the view, Typo3 adds four empty paragraphs before and after the content created on the Rich Text Editor.</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;p class="bodytext"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;p class="bodytext"&gt;    &lt;!--  CONTENT ELEMENT, uid:17/text [begin] --&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;p class="bodytext"&gt;        &lt;a id="c17"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;p class="bodytext"&gt;        &lt;!--  Text: [begin] --&gt;&lt;/p&gt;    
  
  &lt;p class="bodytext"&gt;The actual text added using the Rich Text Editor&lt;/p&gt;    
  
  &lt;p class="bodytext"&gt;        &lt;!--  Text: [end] --&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;p class="bodytext"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;p class="bodytext"&gt;    &lt;!--  CONTENT ELEMENT, uid:17/text [end] --&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;p class="bodytext"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;  
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>It goes without saying, that I'd like to get rid off this clutter, especially since the <code>&amp;nbsp;</code> are breaking the layout.</p>
