tinymce text editor leaves empty <p></p> tags

Using content management system made simple cmsms which uses Smarty templates tinymce text editor leaves empty <p></p> tags.  This sometimes happens when I toggle the WYSIWYG checkbox

Yes, it happens to me, too.  Sometimes I have found the best way to fix this problem is to go into the data base with phpMyAdmin.

Just wait till one of your clients copies a text from a word document and pastes that into tinyMCE!
Notepad makes a great Word to tinyMCE "filter."

Hey, Brian - that's great!  I think it has been a couple of years since I looked at my tinyMCE stuff, and it can probably use an update.  I have been using smadeira's technique, but every so often someone forgets and makes a has of things.
