Re: Blank lines in posts

Guess not. I'll try the HTML trick:

That should make a paragraph--if it does, it's the same trick as for Opera. I've got to agree, though, Firefox makes a lot of sense.

Re: Blank lines in posts

 The blank lines always seem to match up with my mental blanks so what's the issue?

 

 Firefox works best for me. I access the forums on several different computers (PC'S and Mac's) but only post using firefox on the Mac.

Re: Blank lines in posts

Seamonster:
Does anyone else have this problem? When I'm composing a post, hitting the enter key produces a blank line so that I can indicate a new paragraph. However, when I post it to the forum, there is no blank line. What started after the blank line in the composing window is now right after the previous sentence with no blank line. Hitting the enter key used to make a blank line. This just started rather recently.
Yes I have the problem all the time.  I use various browsers and it makes no difference.

There should be a line break above this sentence but there won't be when I post it.  It will be plastered up against the first sentence.   I hate having to compose HTML when things are supposed to be easy and WSIWG.  In fact, I would not mind it nearly so much if the message compose box looked the same as the post box.

But for me (should be another blank line above this one which WILL be there) this is not a recent thing.  As far as I know it has been happening since the forum converted to this software last ummm October. 

For some reason, the missing blank line issue only happens for me after the first paragraph I type after the "quote".  Then everything is fine.
