My Notepad lost all its formatting today, on all three of my devices and all my browsers......
Today my Notepad lost all its formatting, in all my files. They are all just one big blobby mess. I checked all three of my devices and both my browsers and the problem was on all of them. I painstakingly re-entered the line breaks and paragraph breaks on a few of the files and Saved them, and then, when I reopened them, it was all gone again. What happened? And how do I get it back? I have relied very heavily on Yahoo Notepad for quite a few years, have many files on it and would be ruined without it.
Hi there, I’m sorry to hear that! We’d like to further investigate this, can you message us directly on Twitter at @YahooCare or on Facebook on our Yahoo Customer Care page? In case you do not have a social media account, please contact us at help.yahoo.com
Thank you!

Old notes in yahoo notepad are not rendering correctly in the current incarnation of yahoo! notepad.
Newline and other white space characters get eaten and the whole note looks like a smushed up mess.
Maybe it'll get fixed at one point, maybe not.
Until then, this tiny script restores some basic formatting to your notes. yay.
don't know if we can trust this:

same problem with notepad here, the total lay-out disappeared, an it's almost impossible to read anything. I don't understand why nobody complains, I really hope Yahoo solves this.
I checked both Apple and HP devices and 4 browsers and the problem was on all of them. How do I get it back? I , too have relied very heavily on Yahoo Notepad for many years, have large files on it and would be very ruined without it. Please Yahoo, do help us.
