Hi
In the latest version of MT (2.62) I have noticed that the line breaks inside blockquote tags are not being converted.
I have double checked and the default is convert line breaks, and this is also the case for this particular entry.
Can someone please confirm this is a bug and let me know how to solve it?

It's not a bug, it's a feature.
It is hard to produce correct HTML from the "convert line breaks" option when blockquotes (or lists) are in use.
The current algorithm gets it right a much greater percentage of the time, with the downside being that you need to put in the <br />'s by hand
inside the blockquote.
If you can think of a better algorithm, I'm sure Ben and Mena would like to hear it.

since when is this hard? 'cause it certainly used to work just fine... now I have to go in and hand code each entry where this feature (blockquote) was used... grrr!
(and what if it's late fixed!?) double grr!

This topic offers some discussion as to why this now works the way it does (see philringnalda's remarks) - it's all about valid HTML.
