 I am trying to force line breaks for lines of text within an <address> tag
 or <p> tag.

 I would like my content to appear like this on the page (example 1):

 University of Oulu
 Pentti Kaiteran katu 1
 90014 Oulu, Finland

 Instead of like this (example 2):

 University of Oulu Pentti Kaiteran katu 1 90014 Oulu, Finland

 When I add a <br> tag using the html code editor and update the page, the
 <br> tag disappears and fails to affect the appearance of the content (see
 example 2 above). The same thing happens when I use a <p> tag for each
 line of text: the <p> tag disappears in the html code editor, and my text
 appears on the page like example 2.
