Munched line breaks

    When posting I added a couple of < br /> tags beneath the title to make some space above an uploaded image. These are visible in the ‘edit entry’ text box, but vanish in the post.

    A better solution would be to add a class to the uploaded image and then specify in the CSS for that to have your desired margin around it. For example:
    <img src="blah.jpg" alt="My cat" class="postimage" />
    And then in the CSS:
    .postimage {
    margin: 5px;
    }
    Easy peasy, try it.

    Thanks.
    I’m aware of this, but nonetheless remain concerned about my inability to use line breaks in a post. One of the things that I like about WordPress is that the stylesheet and default template is logical and semantic.
    In the case of the above example the line break would be presentational so it makes perfect sense… however, it’s not hard to foresee times I would want them as structural elements, and in that case would hate to have to create dedicated classes.
    BTW, this is a minor annoyance in a beta version of a wonderful piece of software. Very nice work.
