Table with <br/> or <p>

    I’m trying to create a simple two column table to create a recipe index. I managed to insert an empty table, but I have problems with the layout.
    I want it like this:

    header
    recipe link
    recipe link
    (empty line/rule)
    header
    recipe link
    etc.

    But when I’m trying to create an empty line with <br/> of <p> it works for say five minutes and then it gets thrown out. The empty line/rule and the code as well. What can I do to solve this problem?

    I found this in another topic.

    It may be as simple as you need to turn off the wysiwyg editor:
    admin -> Users -> scroll to bottom left.

    This seems to work but is not an very satisfying option. Because everytime I change this page (which is after every post) I have to turn off and on the WYSIWYG-editor.

    Maaike79 is correct. You need to edit or write in the “code” mode. For me, it is just a matter of clicking on a tab, code or visual. I can switch back and forth and so far have had no problems.

    Code something like this . . .

    <table width="290" height="118" border="2" cellpadding="2" cellspacing="2">
  <tr>
    <td width="162"><strong>header</strong><br />
recipe link<br />
recipe link<br />
<hr />
<strong>header</strong><br />
recipe link </td>
    <td width="106">&nbsp;</td>
  </tr>
</table>

    . . . seems to work fine.

    You need to edit or write in the “code” mode.

    Even that is not enough. If the wysiwyg monster is enabled… just switching between Visual?code doesn’t help. You have to disable it completely (admin > Users > Your profile).

    I had to disable it completely. It did help but it is not very satisfactionary.
