The smal piece of HTML code included in your message displays correctly
in Amaya. I just checked. I suspect that something is wrong elsewhere
in your file. The first letter of a paragraph may disappear in Amaya
when that paragraph is within a block-level element. Could you check?
To check your HTML file, you can consider validating it with:
http://validator.w3.org/
Blockquote is definitely in HTML 4. So, if you also have troubles with
blockquote, it may be because you use these tags in a wrong context.
Again, validating the document may help.
Vincent.
