If you are adding html code in the story editor, then its probably getting
stripped out by the kses filter. There is a way to turn it off in config.php.

Text Formatted Code
// When set to 1, disables the HTML filter for all users in the 'Root' group.  
// Obviously, you should only enable this if you know what you're doing and    
// when you can trust all the users in the 'Root' group not to use this for    
// Cross Site Scripting, defacements, etc. USE AT YOUR OWN RISK!
$_CONF['skip_html_filter_for_root'] = 0;

why is it so dangerous to enable this, is it because of the visitors who can hack the geeklog or something??

i am the only root user and i will be the only root user

is this option available in 1.3.11 or only in 1.4

thank you Dirk

Yes, that option is only available as of 1.4.0.

The reason we usually filter HTML is that otherwise you could do all sorts of bad thing, e.g. inject JavaScript to do XSS, deface the site using CSS, etc.
