The last few times I posted to my blog, the break tag function has not been working. Is this specific to my MAC?

There is a known issue with using the “visual” editor and safari. If you use the “code” tab or turn off the visual editor in your Profile in your blog dashboard, you should be ok. Many use Firefox to be able to use the visual editor (including me)

Make sure you are using the correct format as well!

Are you using Safari? Are you using the visual editor or have you disabled it? In the code editor, try using this between paragraphs in the code editor.

Yeah, I have noticed that this is really not working. It LOOKS like it is working but its not at all consistent. You enter it into the editor and you can see it but then when you go back into the editor it’s gone!

The same seems to happen to setting the bordercolor of a table too!

Are you using Safari?

No, Windows with IE7.

It used to be that the editor problems were only in Safari, but there are more and more people using IE7 and Firefox on Windows that are seeing the problem as well. I’m at a loss except to suggest using   on a separate line between paragraphs. The   doesn’t seem to work all the time and sometimes gets stripped out. I’ve never had the first one stripped out though.

I will try again but I think the first one is also being removed.

Nope, gets removed. Its there when you save and look at the page but as soon as you go back into the editor it is gone.

Well, I would send this into support with all the details. Temporarily go to users > your profile and deselect “use visual rich text editor and see if it will keep the line breaks using the nbsp code I listed above. You can also try the br code as well.

There is support, it’s just not open for another six hours.

We can’t help you if you don’t give us a link so we can look at your blog. Did you try the suggestions in this thread?

Thanks for reply but then why should i like have to do certain things to be able to leave a line break in between sentences after sentences or paragraphs?

I don’t have to do this in blogspot or livejournal… and i have to insert things like to get the line break in between? Abit of wasting time here right?

The above show a line break after each paragraph. Below shows something that i kept having in wordpress. Its too congested for the eyes to read if you know what i mean.

I think you should go back ILOVECHRIS to wherever you came from. Blogspot’s not for me, maybe WordPress is not for you too.. lol
