I have noticed lately that the tag <HR> hasn't been working on my archive lately. I am not sure why, but I if I can't figure out why the tag is being stripped, or ignored, I will have to go back and edit stories to fix it.
Does anyone know why it would suddenly stop working? It's in my acceptable tags for both capitalized, and uncapitalized.

Try changing
<hr><HR><hr />
to
<hr>
only.
I'm thinking maybe it's just a skin issue? You can change what a horizontal rule looks like with css. It's really hard to say without being able to see examples on your site.
Whoever said nothing is impossible never tried slamming a revolving door.

Well, I did only have <hr> but it wasn't working so I added them. You know. Its just odd because it wasn't having this problem before that I am aware of.
Whats odd is that some of the skins work with the <hr> and some don't. This topic probably needs to be moved to the CSS section.
There's only one skin that the HR works without the extra code around the HR tag is one I was making that I called CSSBlue.

The only way I can make it work otherwise is to do the below code, I found it on a site to help with CSS and horizontal lines.
Code:
div.hr {
height: 6px;
margin-top: 10px;
margin-right: 10px;
margin-bottom: 10px;
margin-left: 10px;
background: #cda867 no-repeat scroll center;
}
div.hr hr {
display: none;
}
and <div class="hr"><hr /></div>
I tried to convert them together in the HR tag code and it didn't work. *sighs* The only way get it to work is the div class. *grumbles*

<hr> is depriciated. That's why it only works sporadically. You're not actually supposed to use it at all.

*blinks* Well, I don't use it much in the story section myself, but others do. I was told it was too much of a distraction when reading the flow of a story and haven't used them since. I guess I could download the stories directory and change all the <HR>'s to something else to separate paragraphs.
When did it become depreciated? No one ever told me that eFiction doesn't use it anymore. Is there anything that can replace it properly?

<hr> isn't deprecated. All "presentation attributes" of it are. If the tag is present in the source, it should be visible unless you've used CSS to make it not display.
Well, I guess it's not technically depreciated but browser support for it is can certainly be called iffy. *shrugs*
