  ::sigh:: well crud, it ate my ” “s inside the code bits. and there’s no EDIT comment option?

  please ignore the examples above, since they are screwed up. please look at my blog, on the bottom of the left column, because that’s where i store my new post code. (luckily, i haven’t made a blank post template yet, for the new copy post feature. :X )

  sorry about that.

  the basic gist is, if you want more than one blank line in a row, you have to put a non-breaking space on them. and hitting spacebar doesn’t work, if i recall correctly :X

  Non-breaking spaces, empty paragraphs or divs and the like are stripped out if you switch to visual. See here for more stable solutions:

  Formatting text pt. 1: blank lines, alignment, wrap-around, two columns
