Formatting text on eBay

Factual Questions
1

I used the search function for the ebay newbie thread in progress, but as we know it is teh crap. Anyway, I am trying to sell some books on ebay and want to list the chapters, like so:

Introduction

1- Setting up the widget

2- Configuring the widget

3- Maintaining the widget

etc., but it keeps stripping out the carriage returns so it looks like this:

1- Setting up the widget 2- Configuring the widget 3- Maintaining the widget
Why would they do this? They aren’t saving bandwidth, who cares if my listing has a scroll? Are they just being dicks? How do I get around this so I can format a decent text listing for an item?

Thanks.

It might have to do with HTML mode and it not converting the line breaks correctly.

Try adding a <p> at the beginning of every line for a double line break, or a <br> for a single line break.
