BLOG edit on screen mismatch with post.

  • June 5, 2005 11:42 PM BST
    Hi All,
    I have just started posting on my blog. I click edit, and the edit window comes up.
    Everything looks ok, until I post the message. The system seems to ignore my line breaks and posts the message as 1 big text block, without line breaks. I tried it twice with the same results. I ended up deleting the message and decided to ask someone for help. (was in text mode).

    Technical details...
    I'm using a MAC w OSX and the latest Safari browser. IS Safari the problem? IE is not an option for the mac since the new menus went into effect.

    Hugz,

    some very simple tags that work pretty well are: (Type the bit in bold in the plain text editor)

    End of line <br />
    end of paragraph (blank line before next one) <br /><br />

    horizontal line <hr />

    I'll go and posta blog entry showing some of these..

    Hi girlies,

    Yes, I hope the next version of our community software will be more compliant with the Firefoxes and Safaris of this world.
