    Hi,

    Is there a way to make wordpress stop altering the html code of your posts?
    I like wordpress, but why does it have to add junk to the code, like img width and height, nbsp things, ...
    I edit all posts in html directly, but when I publish a post, it's full of garbage html code...

    Anyone else experiencing this?

    Grtz

    Can't say I have noticed. Have you tried going to 'Your Profile' and 'un-clicking '...'Use the visual editor...'

    Not using the visual editor is part of the way but WP will still nest your HTML to xHTML which it is meant here as altering the HTML.

    Apart from disabling WYSIWYG editor, you should also uncheck "WordPress should correct invalidly nested XHTML automatically" under Options --> Writing.

    Hope it helps.
