Let’s look at that editor again…
We’ve seen that <embed> works, now let’s check a few other tags, and I’ll tell you why I think this is a great thing…
Let’s try inserting a <div> with a text-align center attribute and a background color:
So far so good! In older versions of TinyMCE, if you added a <div> tag, it was automatically changed to a <p>aragraph tag in the editor when saved, effectively destroying whatever special layout you were trying to achieve. The same was true of <embed> tags, which even if they managed to stay, were stripped of all their attributes.
If The guys at WordPress leave this functionality in, I’ll be a lot happier. for one thing there are about 8 plugins I can kill on my cooking blog, and that would be a wonderful thing!
