FCKeditor: Delete emtpy paragraph

Delete/replace all empty paragraph created by the FCKeditor e.g. <p> </p>.

“FCKeditor creates emtpy paragraph and you have to open all articles/CPs which are allready done. Then you have to switch into the html mode of your fckeditor and delete the unwanted paragraph. Save the CP/Article and the problem should be solved. PHPWCMS will not remove the empty paragraphs for you.”

“Special in the Summary field of your article header…. there are mostly empty paragraphs.” :-(

If you have such and are not willing to touch all content, place a small script in frontend_render.
