Line breaks in editor

I am loading in content to the editor but it seems to be removing all of the line breaks. For a while I had it going by adding

writer.lineBreakChars = '\n';

but it was still tossing a javascript error. I have two editors on this one page and I use the following code to call them:

<script type="text/javascript">
               CKEDITOR.replace( 'emailBody',
                  {
                     extraPlugins : 'uicolor',
                     skin : 'office2003',
                     toolbar :
                     [
                        ['Source','-','Bold','Italic','Underline','-','JustifyLeft','JustifyCenter','JustifyRight','JustifyFull','-','Link','Unlink','-','Table','Rule','Smiley','SpecialChar'
                     ],
                        '/',
                        ['FontName','FontSize','TextColor','BGColor']
                     ]
                  });
</script>

Now, I had added the linebreakchars code just above the skin line and it didn't like that. Am hoping someone can point me in the right direction to make this work.
