Can’t add breaks / HTML disappears

    See the blog page I am working on here: http://lifegroupleadership.wordpress.com/books/books-grace/

    I am attempting to post photos of books with a short description out to the side of each one. I want these to line up vertically down the left side of the page, but no matter how many breaks or new paragraphs I code in the HTML, the the second book image and description always pops out to the right.

    If I go under the HTML tab and add breaks or paragraphs then hit “Update Page” then “View Page”, nothing changes. Then when I click back on the editing browser, the breaks I just entered have disappeared. Any suggestions?

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

    The HTML standards to not allow multiple breaks or paragraph breaks.

    To achieve what you want, you will have to use an HTML table with the images in one row and the descriptions in the other.

    If you use a blog client such as Windows Live Writer (Windows – free download), it can easily and quickly allow you to build the table, insert the images and the text, and then it will actually upload everything for you. Sadly if you are on a Mac as I am, I’ve never found a blog client that supports tables.

    What you will have to do though is to honor the maximum width of the theme’s post area, but with what you have in your reference page that should not be an issue.
