(Archived) Synching RETURNs and HORIZONTAL RULES

[erbabbie 0]

I like using the horizontal rule feature to separate items in a journal, for example, but they are lost when I upload from the originating computer and downloaded to another--ALMOST ALWAYS. (The inconsistency confounds things.)

Also, OFTEN but NOT ALWAYS, carriage RETURNs are dropped out in synchronization. What was once nicely formatted is now all run together.

I haven't found anyone else reporting these problems, so I'd think it was my particular setup, but it happens across different configurations of computers.

Help.

On which platform are you creating the horizontal rules? Mac, Windows, or Web?

Thanks

Ok, thanks for the report. I wasn't able to reproduce this on my first try, but we'll keep an eye out for HRs failing to sync.

More troublesome than the disappearance of HRs is the disappearance of

's

I've copied the original and the version that shows up on my other compter (separated by -----) in Netscape Composer and viewed the source code. I can see what's missing, but that exhausts my facility with html. Perhaps it will offer a clue to someone more knowledgeable.

Thanks, Earl

After trying to learn something from the html code, it occured to me that some of the formatting I was using in my content might be confusing things; e.g.:

APPOINTMENTS

Could a string of 's cancel out the

's that seem to disappear?

I am reformatting with more of an East German format, and it seems to be working better.
