[TYPO3] <p></p> before and after permitted external blocks in RTE

[Another Vision]

Hi list

I hope someone can help, I'm running around in circles with the RTE
configuration (Typo3 4.1.7)

So far I've got it to allow the external blocks I want to be included saved
to and returned from the DB. 

I can get them pasted into the code view of the RTE and switch between RTE
and source view fine. However when I save 

<p></p> 

is added before and after the permitted external block. Subsequent saving
adds &nbsp; within these empty blocks (despite the inclusion of

lib.parseFunc_RTE.nonTypoTagStdWrap.encapsLines.innerStdWrap_all.ifEmpty = 

in the template)

I'm pretty sure I've set allowed external blocks everywhere I can. What have
I missed?

I've got external blocks/allowed tags specified in the template
lib.parseFunc_RTE....

TSconfig under 'Edit page properties' looks like this:

RTE.default{
proc {

##CSS Styled Content is used.
overruleMode = ts_css

##assume any br is intentional
dontConvBRtoParagraph = 1

remapParagraphTag = p

allowTags =
form,input,select,option,a,address,b,br,caption,div,em,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,hr,
i,img,li,link,ol,p,span,strong,sub,sup,table,tbody,td,th,tr,tt,ul

allowTagsOutside = hr,address,form,input,select,option,br,div

entryHTMLparser_rte = 1
exitHTMLparser_rte = 1

entryHTMLparser_rte.allowTags < RTE.default.proc.allowTags
exitHTMLparser_rte.allowTags < RTE.default.proc.allowTags
entryHTMLparser_rte.allowTagsOutside < RTE.default.proc.allowTagsOutside
exitHTMLparser_rte.allowTagsOutside < RTE.default.proc.allowTagsOutside

HTMLparser_rte.allowTags = form,input,select,option,br,div
HTMLparser_db.allowTags = form,input,select,option,br,div

denyTags >

entryHTMLparser_db = 1
entryHTMLparser_db {
## Always use the same list of allowed tags.
allowTags < RTE.default.proc.allowTags
allowTagsOutside < RTE.default.proc.allowTagsOutside
## Make sure we can set rules on any tag listed in allowTags.
denyTags >
## AVOID CONTENT BEING HSC'ed TWICE
htmlSpecialChars = 0
keepNonMatchedTags = protect
}

HTMLparser_db {
noAttrib = br
allowTags < RTE.default.proc.allowTags
allowTagsOutside < RTE.default.proc.allowTagsOutside
xhtml_cleaning = 1
htmlSpecialChars = 0
keepNonMatchedTags = 0
}

exitHTMLparser_db = 1
exitHTMLparser_db {
allowTags < RTE.default.proc.allowTags
allowTagsOutside < RTE.default.proc.allowTagsOutside
## AVOID CONTENT BEING HSC'ed TWICE
htmlSpecialChars = 0
keepNonMatchedTags = 1
}
}
}

## Erase settings from other extensions
RTE.config.tt_content.bodytext >
RTE.config.tt_news.bodytext >

## Make sure we use ts_css transformation
RTE.config.tt_content.bodytext.proc.overruleMode = ts_css 
RTE.config.tt_content.bodytext.types.text.proc.overruleMode = ts_css
RTE.config.tt_content.bodytext.types.textpic.proc.overruleMode = ts_css




Thanks
