When there is no content in the body of a node that is using the line break filter, the filter adds a

<br />

to the node content. This adds undesired space that cannot be removed even with css (it is pushing down some items that come after the body).

The problem goes away when i comment out:
$format = filter_resolve_format($format);
from:
function check_markup(

But not when you comment out any other line. I'm going to keep playing with this to see what I can find.

I can't replicate this bug in HEAD.

I'm having the same problem. I'm using CKEditor, so not sure if that has anything to do with it.

I have an almost similair issue.

When I add 1 break in the content. There are 2 breaks being outputted into the content. When I look into the node/block content in the database it only has 1 break tag. So the problem must have to do something with the filters or preprocessors.

This issue is on Drupal 6. Probably similair problem as on 7.
