I am playing an opponent who has castled his king and I am trying to do the same but can't get the castling to work. I do meet all the requirements for castling but when i move the king 2 squares towards the rook (from d1 to b1) and try to move the rook over the king (from a1 to c1), the kings returns to it former position. Do I have to press a special key may be (like shift or something) to be able to do that???

It's not fair for us to tell you what you need to do right now. There is no flaw with the rules, just your understanding.
Read the FAQ about castle, and look through your game from move one. Also, look at your other game from move one. You can do those things, but we shouldn't tell you what's up since a game is hanging on your next move here at RHP.

When I castle (and it is allowed to do so) I just move the king two squares and press submit and the rook will follow to its right position.

When I castle, the rook moves automatically before I press 'submit move'.
