The tag is supposed to automatically create a link (by default “more…”) that should take the reader to the single post view.
Can you show us an example for what you described?
check out http://www.drummerspocket.siahart.com. the most recent post i used the more tag. it did cut the page but did not leave a link so i had to creat a link of my own.
and if you go to the post page my link is still there
on the Oct 30 post on the front page I took out the read more link I created to show that the more tag is in place but is not creating a link to the next page
Actually, if you look at the source code of your main page, the link created by the more tag is THERE:
<a href="http://www.drummerspocket.siahart.com/index.php/2006/11/01/new-may-acoustic-eq-snare-drum/#more-14"></a>
it’s just “empty”… (=no word in between the anchor tags)
Can you paste the code of your index.php to http://wordpress.pastebin.ca and post back with the uri?

I tried the more tag on another blog of mine and it works fine so i thik it has to do with the blog theme that i am using.
Change:
<?php the_content(''); ?>
to:
<?php the_content(); ?>
Or if you want your own link text, to something like:
<?php the_content('Keep reading this article...'); ?>
