Everytime I go back to edit the page with the WordPress editor it messes it up!
I’m having to save it in notepad each time and resubmit it.

Is there a way I can turn the visual rubbish off perhaps and just use code?
You could try using a browser that does not support WISYWYG editing. This shows only the code tab. (At least Mac OS Safari works this way.)
I also found this in another post:
It may be as simple as you need to turn off the wysiwyg editor:
admin -> Users -> scroll to bottom left.
Also go to :
admin -> Options -> Writing and uncheck box for “WordPress should correct invalidly nested XHTML automatically”.
Where do you enter HTML code? I need to add a tag line under my blog title.

Just do what the above suggested.. then enter your code… you will need to keep it like that though.
Well, for starters:
<p id="l_bar"><h3>sdfsdff</h3>uihi uihihiui</p>
That’s not valid code. P is a block level tag that can only contain inline tags. H3 is a block level tag as well. So you can’t put an H3 inside of a P.
The correct way to write that would be:
<div id="l_bar"><h3>sdfsdff</h3><p>uihi uihihiui</p></div>
WordPress is attempting to change your broken code to good code. It’s not particularly good at it, mind you, but it’s better than you seem to be.
