When I transform the XML to HTML, they just dissappear.

Do you look at the transformation result in a text editor or in a browser? Because a browser will not render any line breaks as such, rather it collapses any white space to a space (http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/struct/text.html#h-9.1). So unless you use the HTML 'pre' element the browser will not render line breaks in element content.
