[wp-hackers] Can't find where <p> and <br /> tags are comingfrom

WordPress does automatically add <p> and <br> tags to anything that
goes through the the_content filter (i.e. if you output a post's
content with the the_content() template tag). You can avoid that in
particular instances by doing something like this:

remove_filter( 'the_content', 'wpautop' );
the_content();
add_filter( 'the_content', 'wpautop' );

However, I can't see use of the_content() in your code - it all seems
to be running through the Zend_Gdata_Photos class.

I got stuck once in a similar situation, and for the <br> tags,
there's a simple CSS workaround. If you can isolate the tag that wraps
the area where you don't want <br> tags, just add something like:

#wrapper br { display: none; }

Not sure about those stray <p> tags though...
