    Hello!

    Im trying to make a input box with html that someone can click on and enter information. When i type the code in to the html section of the edit page and click on visual it works but when i preview page or update it and go to the site its not there.

    I know how frustrating it can be when things don;t seem to work like they’re supposed to.

    You didn’t post your code, so we can’t look at why it is being rejected, so all i can do is give you the general guidelines about using code on your WordPress.Com site:

    Hope that helps!

    Hi there,

    The kind of HTML you’re trying to use is not allowed on WordPress.com, as explained at the link @dave2swords provided.

    If you want the ability to capture information from site visitors you’ll need to use a contact form instead:
