One of the problems everyone is complaining about is that their posts no longer accept line breaks. Well, when Soulcast gives us the option to choose which tab we want for a default, you guys will be able to choose the "Compose" tab and all should be well. But until then, just use a break tag. I can't show it to you here, but I can describe it: a "less than" symbol, followed by the letters br, and then a "greater than" symbol.
Remember these less than (lt), greater than(gt) symbols, you need them for every bit of html editing.
Here's a list of commands you need to place inside those symbols in order to get these results (I will use (lt) or (gt) to indicate those symbols):
for a line break: (lt)br(gt) There's no need to "close" a break tag.
bold: (lt)B(gt) at the beginning of the word/sentence you want in bold. THEN you need to "close" that bold tag by typing (lt)/B(gt)
italicize: (lt)I(gt) your word or sentence here (lt)/I(gt)
underline: (lt)U(gt) your word or phrase here (lt)/U(gt).
hmmm... for some reason, the underline tag command is not working.
Leave me a comment if you have any questions. I'll try to help.

Hey Windrider,
Thanks for the info. I'm trying to do it now and hope it'll work. I'm not really a techy kind of gal :) Hope i did it right.
I can't click the compose tab at the moment. It's not working. So it's quite annoying. And there are many posts/comments that I couldn't read because there are no paragraph breaks so they give me a headache.
Cheers :) -

Hi Wind!
Thanks for dropping by my blog. I miss you *lol*!
I think, l said it to an on-line friend in another site - it is so frustrating that you could not meet the people you like on-line in the spur of the moment in a corner coffeeshop for just a quick hug and a chat.
Anyway, I am thankful for cyberspace, specially as a mom with two kids who are still strengthening their immune system. You tend to have moments in regular intervals where you are stuck at home.
This is sooo cool from you. I don´t know squat about HTML. I think I borrowed the book HTML for Dummies once, from the library but didn´t get to read it.

missb,
I´m a lazy bitch, (did I just say that ~blush~ ?!) and maybe that is why my guardian angel gave me what you could call fluke on my laptop:
My tip, something that works for me, I hope it will work for others too - is type one letter under Edit HTML, then switch to Compose. You will then be able to edit under Compose.
You could do this while Commenting.
Or when posting and you are copying/pasting. Do the same type a word or a letter under Edit HTML switch to Compose highlight the word and paste the copied post or comment.
Hope that made sense to somebody.
Again Happy Holidays to you both, me sweeties!

Wind,
Thanks a lot. I can now have paragraph breaks. Although it's still so freaking annoying to type < BR > sh*t twice just to make a break :/ I really hope SC will get this fixed soon, i don't know how long i can stand this.
Paper dear,
I've tried that. And it didn't work :( I think it has something to do with javascript dunno what. I'm sooo pissed off. I too am a lazy bitch. I can't be bothered typing < BR > twice everytime i break a paragraph :/ And i don't feel like posting anything either knowing that there's a big chance that it'll f*ck up. [sighs] Sorry for the rant dear :) Happy holidays to you too ;)
[hugz]

missb...
Oh man... look at what you did. Instead of messing with those stupid parenthesis... I could have done it like you did < br > and emphasized no spaces in the tag. Jeez, do I feel stupid...LOL! -
