   Wordpress is stipping out all the html from the About user box. I'm using 2.0.3 I fixed the problem in 2.0.2 with this: http://trac.wordpress.org/attachment/ticket/2272/2272.diff

   Now, even with that, the form does not save the html. Any help is greatly appreciated.

   It's probably a security "feature" to prevent undesireable code being inserted?

   in /includes/template-functions-author.php

   use html_entity_decode() on line 16 to decode the html entities

   line 16 should look like:

   return html_entity_decode($authordata->description);

   on second thought it would be better to do that in your theme files like this...

   <?php echo html_entity_decode(get_the_author_description()); ?>

   Would that be in functions.php?
