I recently had the problem that when I wrote a post from the iPhone or from Windows Live Writer, the image code was broken. I had written the following HTML code:

<img src=”http://example.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/test.jpg” border=”0″ alt=”DSA00005.JPG” width=”431″ height=”284″ />

But the blog received the following:

img src=”http://example.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/test.jpg” border=”0″ alt=”DSA00005.JPG” width=”431″ height=”284″ /

So all < and > were removed.

I searched through several German WordPress forums, but in the end I found the solution in the official English WordPress forum.

The problem isn’t directly with you, but with the server running your WordPress installation. They forgot to apply a PHP update.

But what can you do now?

First, you can of course ask your administrator when they’ll install the update. Alternatively, you can install this Plug-In in WordPress and that will work around the problem.

If I’ve helped you, I’d really appreciate a short comment.
