line breaks are deleted??

I’m glad you asked this, because line-breaks and the overall issue is driving me nuts.

Apparently, wordpress is doing quite a few operations when you hit ‘save’ or ‘preview’ or simply switch from the ‘visual’ to ‘code’ tabs.

I was hoping that whatever I typed into the textarea in a post, would be posted verbatim, without adding garbled css inline styles, tags, etc.

It’s driving me nuts.

is it possible noone else has got this issue??

Man, this issue happens if you use SSSSSSafari to edit your pages.
Using Firefox makes the problem go away!

I found the information here!

Well, I have tried all the suggestions, not using Safari, sing FF or Camino instead, and none of them work at all.

Regardless of the browser, as soon as I save and go back to look at the page, the
are gone, deleted, stripped.

Any other ideas? This is really frustration, especially when I do not have that much experience nor easy access to people who do.

re there no fixes for this at all? Will it come to the point where pages/posts are totally bland for lack of
?

Having the same problem.

Firefox seams to be working at the moment.

I’m having the same problem with version 2.6.1 in Firefox 3, not sure how relevant the issue is to browser type/version?

I would really, really like to have some white space between the <h2> at the top of the post and the next line for legibility/clarity. But no joy. Multiple
tags seem to have no effect, nor does the <p> tag. Sigh.

I have the same problem. Something so simple, how can it be this difficult? IT’S Driving me crazzzzzy!

If you read the Help section where you create posts and pages, it says that line breaks are supposed to be created in CSS. TinyMCE strips out the and tags, so they won’t get in no matter hows you do them or what browser you use. The problem is that CSS won’t allow you to create line breaks wherever you want them.

“Code is poetry.” Unfortunately, WP wants us to create poetry with only four or five words.

I use FF2 and WP 2.1.2 and have the same problem. Annoying as hell and no answers anywhere.

I tried all tricks and there is no way that wordpress keeps the
tabs. Therefore I had to use something else. I tried tables!

Using tables will make you use more programing, unless you use the TinyMCE Advanced plugin, which helps you use tables more easily.

With tables, when I need a single line break, I switch to the next row of the table. If I need a double line break, I leave an empty row in the table (<tr><td></td></tr>) The result, it gives me something like this.
