ok werner has pointed out the problem is with Chrome and the forum, but IceWeasel is fine.
Now my ENTERs are preserved, but I still can't see an "Edit this post" option on the post above.

whenever I post I find that all my ENTERs disappear.and the times when I have an option to edit a post, it sits loading.currently, when I look at this post of minehttp://knoppix.net/forum/showthread.php?31069-samba-window-won-t-close-on-wrong-user-passI don't see an 'edit this post' option.it just has 'reply' 'reply with quote' and 'multi-quote this message'

For normal users this option is only available for a short time.
Dear terapin (your post #1)
1. Fix for "all my ENTERs disappear", when using Chromium browser:
Go to
http://knoppix.net/forum/forum.php .
Log in.
Go to
ForumActions/GeneralSettings/MiscellaneousOptions/MessageEditorInterface.
Change the "Message Editor Interface" from "Enhanced Interface" to "Basic
Editor". Click "Save Changes" at bottom right of page. Log out, and close that
tab window (or vice versa - not sure if it matters).
I had same trouble as you. After I did the above fix, when I prepared subsequent posts, the ENTERs didn't
disappear, ie the post displayed properly.
2. Fix for "when I have an option to edit a post, it sits loading", when using
Chromium browser:
This is a get-round. Don't left-click "Edit Post", but RIGHT-click it. Click
"Open Link in New Tab". The new tab window allows you to do the edit.
Regards, John.

When writing a post I don't see any button to make an image link and an image tag written manually gets eaten but that's not a big problem
