 * I have a page whith a long text and I have insert the <!–nextpage–> tag for pagination
   by using a simple echo:
    `echo "<!--nextpage-->"` But wordpress doesn’t seem 
   to recognize the tag when it is echoed, just if the tag has been stripped… How
   can I fix this?

 * Hi Leandro_S,
 * <!–nextpage–> is a special code that is parsed before short codes are in the 
   post content, as such this tag needs to be used within the actual post content
   rather than a short code.
 * There may be something in the codex which will allow you to paginate, or you 
   can use custom PHP code to make the same thing happen and echo your own links.
 * I hope this helps,
 * Thanks,
    TMC
