 * Hello, as you can see in provided example below whenever i try insert any sort
   of HTML tags into my posts, and/or pages they are not being formatted in any 
   way at all. Is there anything anyone can do to help me out with this mess?
 * Example:

 * Are you typing the tags in the rich text editor (RTE) in WordPress 2.0? Try turning
   it off (in your Profile, right down the bottom, untick the box), or try clicking
   the HTML button on the RTE toolbar and putting your code in there.

   plugin be inteferring somehow?
