Hi there, that doesn’t sound like issue with the Superhero theme – are you using a plugin for that shortcode? If so, you could check the plugin documentation or ask in the plugin’s forum if that syntax is correct.
Could you provide a link to your site so I can take a look?
not using a plugin no that is the standard wordpress way for embedding code into posts but it doesnt work with your theme ??
Basically this is my free wordpress here :
http://gunnerjnr.wordpress.com/tutorials/hello-world/ << in this page the code tags work and embed it as actual highlighted code
What I have been doing is recreting my wordpress on my domain through the hosts cPanel tools, which can be viewed here:

(Please note this is a sub domain of http://gunnerjnr.uk/)
Thank you !

Ah, that is a WordPress.com site. 🙂 WordPress.com has a built-in code highlighting plugin, which is what drives the shortcode.
The plugin is something you’d have to add yourself to a self-hosted site. There are a few you could try – the one on WordPress.com is based on this one:

Oh I see, I wasnt aware of that, thank you for much for your help and quick responses 🙂
