Last time I checked a line-break was one of the things Netscape (4) didn't
mess up.
Look into your CSS settings of line-height, padding-top/ -bottom, and
margin-top/ bottom, as well as display: block/ inline.
Also check your HTML.
This is OK:
<p>
This is some text<br />
This is some text
</p>
This is a bit of a mess:
<p>
This is some text<br /><br />
This is some text
</p>
This'd be the better alternative:
<p>
This is some text
</p>
<p>
This is some text
</p>
