Formatting, we don't need no stinking Formatting

1. Formatting, we don't need no stinking Formatting

   #1

   My ability to format submissions has been decaying for some time.
   
   I haven't been able to create block quotes for a long time. Now, the indent function and line break bar do not work. I can put these in the submission, but they do not appear in the saved product. The same goes for aligning or centering text. Its there when I am actively working on a sub, but it doesn't appear in the saved product.
   
   Right now, the only thing that works 100% of the time is bold and italics.
   
   I don't know WTH is going on with my editing and formatting functions but they aren't working and it's making me cross.

   Can you give me a sub you are working on?
   
   I just did multiple edits to one of my test subs with and without blockquotes headers etc etc and they all worked every time.

   Sub example?
   
   Sometimes it gets wierd stuff in there that it cleans for you while destorying other stuff. I did multiple edits and formatting while I was troubleshooting the title quote error and didn't have any difficults.
   
   Do you have IE or firefox you could give it a try in? If it works in those then we will know it is chrome doing something funky.

   I tried to make an example sub where I made it do all the things that aren't working and and after I put in a horizontal line break the sub quit working. I have to re-click the entry box because each keystroke is throwing me out of it. Will try some other stuff, see what happens

   Strange. Chrome worked fine for me.

   valadaar: okay, the HR is busted.
   valadaar: the HR does not render, and it breaks the entry until the next tag.

    I'd also like to know how some people are getting solid bars across their submissions, because a lot of what I am working on is just turning into giant blocks of text, and I cant block quote in text for fluff, and I can't get HRs, or breaks, and its just turning into walls of words.

    hr is fixed - Just threw a new one in there as had no idea what was happening with the other.
    
    Not sure of the rest though

    Did some edits to that file.
    
    blockquote = quote
    In the paragraph symbol dropdown
    
    The styles that do the indent get stripped out for security. Might not be the best answer for that at the moment. That would take more work than I have time to figure out. But glad you pointed it out so either I remove those options or fix it!
