But IMO breaking a line also creates a new (empty) line.
This is how it works everywere else, and the specification doesn't say
in HTML it should behave different.
Also, for the P element the specification explicitly says that empty
blocks should be ignored. It does NOT say this for BR.
Furthermore I don't see a reason why an empty line should not be allowed
(multiple <BR> tags are the only way to achive it)
And last: all browsers (at least those I have here) do interpret multiple
BR's as expected. IE does it too, except if inside a PRE block.
I've now removed that silly <pre>, the problem I had with NN4 without it
is gone, probably fixed by some other changes I did before.
So I hope it will now work correctly everywere.
> When you write <B><B>word</B></B> is this word more bold ?
Thats a completely different problem (the BR's were not nested).
The correct question would have been:
If you write <b></b><b/>word</b>, should the user agent render the first
B block (containing zero characters) bold, or just skip it? ;-)
