Eric,

 

Unfortunately with the little information you provided, we will have NO IDEA what you are talking about. Perhaps you could explain better ?

Try using <BR> instead of <br/>

 

I have never lost anything using <BR> but have never used <br/>. Don't know off hand what would cause it.

Eric,

 

Ok, you mean in the product description area.

 

The CORRECT use is <br />. However, <br> is still accepted and is still cross browser compatible (for now). Have you added any character stripping contributions lately ? Are you using an editor for your descriptions ?

i use <br/> an the last thing i installed was the attribute contribution and skype chat that was it

As Chris mentioned the proper format is <br />, notice the space between the r and the forward slash /.

 

I have used both <br> and <br /> with no problems.

 

The only problem you will run into is trying to validate (W3C) your version of osC.

 

It does not like the <br /> tag with the DOCTYPE. So I've been sticking with just <br>.

 

[MrPhil]

Most browsers accept <br>, <br/>, and <br />. The latter two are the XHTML self-closing tag version, and should preferably be used only when the DOCTYPE declares XHTML usage, while the first is old fashioned HTML. When the OP says that "the breaks were removed", are they gone from the page source (do a View > Page source), are they disabled (<br/>), or something else? Were they in your product description text? I don't think standard osC has anything to remove or "sanitize" HTML tags in there -- what have you added?

i haven't added anything an the <br/> works just fine i haven't had a problem with it. i just used my last back up sucks but oh well. jus not sure what would strip the <br/>
