html in posts

Hi,

The website i’m making isn’t actually a blog, but has simple pages, with one post on each page.
But… I need more then just text, so I would like to use HTML in the posts.

Unfortunately, any html i’m entering is shown as text, not as html.
There will probably be a work-a-round, but since i’m new to wordpress, i have no knowledge of them.

So, can someone show me in the right direction, or even better, hand me a solution?

All i can give you in return is eternal gratitude!

Thnx in advance!
