 * I wish to use wordpress pages to fully manage the content on my site because 
   it is nice to have an all in one pannel that i can acces from any pc, no need
   to ftp and edit code.
 * My problem is i create my lovely pages but i cant embed alot of code. I have 
   a few small php scripts and when i goto add them in the html edit part the post
   is stripped of tages such as <? and a few others making the code useless.
 * I tried creating a blank page.php template so that it had a header/sidebar/footer
   but i could add my own content but i get –> Fatal error: Call to undefined function:
   get_header() in /mounted-storage/…./files.php on line 1
 * If i could figure out how to embed my scripts in a “new page” post that would
   be great or at least be abel to create custom X.PHP files i can link to that 
   adhear to my current theme but i can add any amount of code to it i want.
 * Any ideas?? Thanks!

 * I had this problem not too long ago. I have a custom-written PHP script for my
   contact form I wanted to use in WordPress, because I wanted the layout/sidebars
   to coincide with the rest of my WordPress site. Exact same issue – my PHP code
   wouldn’t work for squat in the content area. Drove me batty. But then, I found
   this:
