      I am editing a WordPress stylesheet file, style.css, using notepad++. When I uploaded the file (via ftp) after editing, I find all the line breaks have been removed. The code shows up as one big mass of text.

      Here is the messed up stylesheet:
      http://staging.alphaprofit.com/wp-content/themes/iconiconepro-child/style.css

      Here is what the stylesheet should look like:
      http://staging.alphaprofit.com/wp-content/themes/iconic-one-pro/style.css

      When I downloaded style.css the first time, edited it and uploaded it, it seemed OK. When I downloaded the edited version, re-edited and uploaded, things have gone haywire.

      How do I re-insert the line breaks?

      Thanks,
      Melissa

        could it be that this is some kind of eol issue?
        Like you edit the file with windows eol while uploading to a unix server which expects \n only?
        View->Show Symbols->Show end of line

        Cheers
