I solved a similar problem with html tags inside Contact Form 7. Instead of putting the code into a custom post type as a template as Eliot suggested (which is a great idea for solving lots of WordPress problems!), I put the html into a my own shortcode, and inserted the other shortcode data into it. In my case I was creating <option> tags for a select box:

function option_shotcode($atts, $content=null) {
return ‘<option value=”‘.$content.'”>’.$content.'</option>’;
}
add_shortcode(“option_shortcode”, “option_shortcode”);

Then I used it like this:

[loop type=post]
[option_shortcode][field author][/option_shortcode]
[/loop]

There is a plugin that will allow you to upload a zipped archive of files using the default uploader (which means you get thumbnails, etc.).

I also find the flexible-upload plugin quite useful for re-sizing my thumbs and originals on upload, and for integrating with lightbox:

Hope this helps.
