 * When I use the < code > syntax to display code, wordpress does not show the code.
   
   You can see the problem.. [http://all-iran.info/home/wp/archives/2004/12/09/66/](http://all-iran.info/home/wp/archives/2004/12/09/66/)
   What is problem ? Thank you. I want to show this code… ` <?php $temp_category
   = single_cat_title('',false); if (!empty($temp_category)){ // give index ?> <
   h1><?php single_cat_title(); ?></h1> <?php echo(category_description(the_category_ID(
   false))); ?> <p class="index"> <?php if ($posts) : foreach ($posts as $post) :
   start_wp(); ?> "><?php the_title(); ?> / <?php the_date(); ?> <br> <?php endforeach;
   else: ?> <?php _e('Sorry, no posts matched your criteria.'); ?> <?php endif; ?
   > <?php }else{ // give details or single post ?>

 * Put it through the Amazing WP [Encoder](http://resources.wordpress.org/tools/encode.php)
   and post the output on your site. Code tag doesn’t change the fact that all that
   looks like code will be interpreted as code — I think.
    There are also plugins
   for this but of those I know nothing

 * definitely…
    the  tag allows a lot of code to parse, and thus is invisible, or
   even messed up in the text filtering. use the encoder, it's a wonderful solution!
   the users can still cut and paste your example code whithout having to decode
   it. : ) F.
