Default How do I stop making a new paragraph when i press enter?

If you need the line breaks (if it's poetry, for example), then you can use
Shift+Enter, but if you want the text to wrap to available space (between
margins on a page to be printed or within a browser window, regardless of
how it's resized), then you should avoid manual breaks within a paragraph.
If you want space between paragraphs, HTML uses two line breaks instead of a
paragraph break.

how do I let word wrap it naturally? And also it looks like a paragraph on
a
word page but when I copy and paste onto my writing homepage, it takes
away
the formatting as seen on the word page. So basically, unless I double
paragraph, then there is no paragraphing at all once copied to my writing
site.

I didnt have this problem with word 2003 - I could copy and paste and it
stayed the same - and was wondering if there is a way to make 2007 work in
the same way.

When Im writing in Word 2007, whenever I press enter once the text ends
up
looking like this:

the black cow

jumped over the

orange moon.

However, when it is posted on a website, it looks like this:

the black cow
jumped over the
orange moon

How do I make it stop so that what the text looks like on the word page
looks the same on a web page?
Any answers in 'idiot English' please.

Thanks.
