    Hey Guys,

    Im using a theme called ShowcaseTheme for my wordpress installation and am having an issue with regards to linebreaks and <p> tags in my post.

    As you can see from the code below:
    <p style="text-align: left;">We are proud to present one of our most popular websites, dedicated to the music and acting career of teen sensation from Disney's hit series, Hannah Montana. Its no other than <a href="http://www.mileycyrus-online.co.uk" target="_blank"><strong>Miley Cyrus</strong></a>.</p>
    <p style="text-align: left;"></p>
    <p style="text-align: left;">Features of the site include:</p>
    <p style="text-align: left;"></p>
    
    <ul style="text-align: left;">
    	<li> Daily New &amp; Updates</li>
    	<li>Photo Galleries</li>
    	<li>Song Videos &amp; Lyrics</li>
    	<li>Polls &amp; Quiz's</li>
    </ul>
    And much more... If you like Miley Cyrus, head over and check us out at www.mileycyrus-online.co.uk
    Code (markup):
    <p> tags & <li> tags are clearly there on the page, but upon viewing the page, no linebreaks are there, and all the bullet points are gone.

    Your advice will be very much appreciated.

    Because you have styling for the ul tag in your css file. You also forgot to close a <p> as you have a blank open <p style="text-align: left;">
