Hi,

Thanks, Brian.

But 2 problems is not solved by your solutions.

Templates are expanded on preview screen, but not after saved. All str texts are showed as <pre>. Top and bottom are as well.

Also I tried <br> and <br /> as line break, but they don't work. In addition, a sentence after <br> is not displayed.

How is it in other languages?

Hmm ive previously used templates and they have worked, you just have to be careful that the expanded text still looks like an srt file.

For line breaks, try using <br> wherever you want a break, maybe.
