Disable wysiwg in WP?

  • I’m wondering if there is a way to completely turn off wysiwyg in wordpress (preferable temporarily). I’m trying to enter a block of code into the page editor that looks similar to this:

    <div id=”flashIntro”>
    var FU = { movie:”flash/flvplayer.swf”,width:”755″,height:”355″,majorversion:”7″,build:”0″,bgcolor:”#000000″,allowfullscreen:”true”,flashvars:”frontcolor=0xCCCCCC&file=../media/video/home/01.flv&autostart=true&displayheight=355&overstretch=true” };
    UFO.create(FU, “player2”);
    </div>

    The problem is that WordPress is changing all of my ampersands to “ampersand#38;” when i save the page and it’s breaking the code.

    My solution was to create a template and just insert the code directly into it, rather than in the editor. But that creates a new problem; WordPress thinks that if I don’t enter any content into the editor for a particular page, it should drop a break tag in there.

    How can I make it so that anything I enter into the editor renders EXACTLY how I enter it without WordPress changing it?

    Oh, and I figured I should say this premptively: Yes, I turned off the rich text editor and correct invalid xhtml options. it had no effect. WP is still adding break tags where I don’t want them, and changing my ampersand signs.

    I read the thread about wp inserting extra paragraph tags and someone suggested the “Disable autop” plugin. Will that plugin solve my problems as well?
