Disappearing <br /> in non-empty list item

[Koen Willems]

I would like to create XHTML as the following:

<ul>
    <li class="decimal">
        <span class="ol">1. </span><em>Test 1</em><br />
        This line should appear on a new line, because a '<br />'
        was entered with 'SHIFT + ENTER, just after '<em>Test 1</em>'.
    </li> 
</ul>

But in fact in (Internet Explorer 7) when I hit SHIFT + ENTER a single time, the <br /> diasappears (for example: after switching to source-mode and back).

In Firefox i've no problem at all and SHIFT + ENTER behaves like expected!

I found two 'solutions':

1. Remove the <em> and </em> surrounding 'Test 1'
2. Hit SHIFT + ENTER twice!!!!

For me this is a huge problem, because the users of my CMS (most of them use Internet Explorer) of course would never think about hitting SHIFT + ENTER twice.

Confirmed on IE 6 also. Ok with Firefox.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Enter the following code in the source:

<ul>
    <li class="decimal"><span class="ol">1. </span><em>Test 1</em>This line should appear on a new line, because a '&lt;br /&gt;' was entered with 'SHIFT + ENTER, just after '&lt;em&gt;Test 1&lt;/em&gt;'.</li>
</ul>

2. Switch back to WYSIWYG.

3. Place the cursor right after "Test 1".

4. Hit Shift+Enter. The <br> will be correctly included.

5. Switch back to source. The <br> will not be there anymore.

#122 is probably a DUP of this one.

Confirmed #122 and #124 as DUP of this one.

FCK remove <br /> after any closing tags #168 doesn't work
