  I drafted a blogpost and when I preview it all of the breaks dissapeared (to seperate I inserted like 5 breaks in between two textparts of the entry) – this has never happened to me before – maybe I just misclicked at a setting or so …

  Hopefully you can understand my problem :)

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  I also tried to go to html editing mode and enter the
  tags – same issue :)

  hi
  unless you specifically trying to force a space (after an image ,for example) you really don’t need to type the
  <br />
  at wordpress.com in the editor.

  When typing in the editor in either mode: you press (ENTER) to break to the next line
  or (SHIFT)+(ENTER) if you wish to skip a line (example: between paragraphs).

  if you are pasting text from somewhere else that had the (BR /) tag in it, its still there, its just not visible and acts as if you had typed (ENTER).

  I hope that clarifies.

  Forget that that last comment by me
  instead:
