# WordPress editor removes class= when posting code.

 * I’m working on a blog about my journey learning to write WordPress templates.
   Because of this, I post a lot of my code.
    I’ve noticed if I post something like
 * div class=’container’
 * the class will get stripped out. I’ve been able to work around this using Paste
   as Plain Text, but I lose my formatting. Is this the only way to get this working
   or am I missing an option in the editor?
    I’ve tried searching the forums, but
   most of the suggestions say to just use the HTML tab, so I think my search is
   bad and it’s returning ways to use code in the editor. Any help would be appreciated.
   Thanks.

 * I just switched to Dean’s FCKEditor For WordPress. It let’s me post code all 
   day long.
