Empty tag <br> issue?

   I'm stupid, just say it. Though 'br' lists as a tag in my allowed markup (as here), entering it to force spaces after blockquotes, which force the next line following up, does nothing.

   Any ideas?

   I actually have the same problem; <br> doesn't work, it just shows up in the post as-is.

   That works, except for one issue - blockquotes. I was trying to use it (inappropriately, it seems) to force a space after a blockquote. Here's what's happening:

   Test post

   Text bumped right up against blockquote.

   Okay, shoot - blockquote isn't defined here, so I can't show you what's happened. Try here:

   ...bottom third of that first post, right after the blockquote.

   No matter how many spaces I place after the blockquote end tag, or instances of the br tag, it stays flush.

   Okay, fixed it by putting:

   margin-bottom: 1em;

   ...in the CSS. :)

   I wonder if someone smarter than me could write a plugin for Markdown or Textile? That would beat these tags by a mile.

   I might do it sometime, but for now I'd say just use the Comment Quicktags - press a button and the code is inserted, if your problem is remembering the codes.
