    Please help me! I'm quite new at this but I've managed to fix everything except from the linebreaks. Something must be wrong.

    I'm using the zack 990 theme and it doesn't work in Visual or HTML-mode. It doesn't matter if i just simply press the "new line key" in Visual mode or write the code
    in HTML mode. Once the post is posted, the linebreaks are gone.

    (Well, it works to write one linebreak like this:

    Hello hello
    hello hello

    But not double, like this:

    hello hello

    hello hello)

    I've tried to read the forums and add/remove the codes that are suggested, but it doesn't seem to help.

    Please, can somebody help me with this??

    Firstly, when making a post do not switch between the visual and code editor - choose 1 and stick to it or the editor automatically makes changes to the code.

    Secondly, to conform with xhtml all line breaks must be self-closing: <br />

    You may wish to start a new paragraph (<p>... </p>) instead of using multiple line breaks
