   Hello,

   In one of my posts, I have specified a url to an image for the excerpt.

   Now when I use the the_excerpt() function to fetch that url:

   <li><img src="<strong><?php the_excerpt();?></strong>" alt="" /></li>

   ...the following happens:

   <img src="<p>http://localhost/includes/assets/img/folio/eenappje.png</p>" alt="">

   As you can see, a "<p>" and "</p&gt" are added to the beginning and end of the url.

   How can I stop this?

   Thanks.

   You need to add this to functions.php or a plugin file.
   remove_filter('the_excerpt', 'wpautop');

   It removes the autowrapping of <p> tags.
