How to prevent the HTML editor from adding a p tag after I delete it from the code?

I have a block of text that's surrounded with a <span> tag.  The HTML editor keeps adding a <p> tag before the <span> tag and it's affecting the layout of the text.  How do I remove specific tags from the HTML and not have the editor add them back in?

I'm assuming this is an email?

Use a <div> instead, or just go to Email Actions > HTML Tools > Replace HTML but that will disconnect the email from the template.

Try editing the HTML for that block, delete the P and replace with <BR> if you need a break.

Usually it is gone as long as you don't try to edit any further.

It's a token (rich-text).  Placing <div> tags around the block solved it.  Thanks Justin.
