WordPress for Android Forums

Recently I've noticed that whenever I create a post from my phone and publish it, the post is missing the open and closed brackets for coding. And the thing is that I'm not adding the html code to my post, the program is doing it.

For example, this is what I type on the phone:

testing is fun

And what appears on the site is:
```
pTesting is fun/p
```
So it looks like the app is trying to add correct HTML tags to this but it's losing the "<" and ">". Anyone else having this problem?

My specs:
Phone - Incredible with Android 2.2 and an Eris using 2.1
App - Wordpress 1.3.5
Self hosted Wordpress ver. 3.0

I can't reproduce that with my Incredible with Android 2.2.

The <p> tag is not added until it's displayed on the front end website. I could be a plugin issue. Do you not have the same issue if you post from the web interface?

@jp182 - I think you have the libxml2 issue, check out the solution here:

Joshua,
Yeah I post on the website all the time with no issues.

mrroundhill,
I'll look into the link you put up and let you know what happens.

Thanks to the both of you for responding!
