I need to have a text file that will show two empty lines in FBReader, but I can't figure out how to do it. It always shortens 2 or more returns (of whatever sort) into one line. Putting a space in after the returns doesn't help. Also, it seems to always interpret 4 returns as a new page. Is there any way to change this behavior? It must be possible to use some code to indicate empty lines. This also happens in rtf, Palm, and htm files (though some of them don't make new pages). I looked at the source code but couldn't find anything.

Make an HTML file. Do a non-breaking space ( &nbsp; ) followed by a break (<br>). This should skip a blank line.
