  We are a web hosting provider and recently we have run into a problem we can’t really solve. Since we upgraded to PHP 5.2.8 one of our customer’s WordPress blogs is showing HTML code in the title and parts of the text. I did a search on Google and found that many WordPress blogs appear to suffer from the same problem. Here are a few:

  http://southwestairline.biz/wordpress/
  http://exxtreme-gourmet.com/wordpress/?m=20090125
  http://www.icelandforsale.com/blog/?cat=3
  http://www.reviewfor.com/wordpress/

  As you can see when you look at these blogs the title is not shown correctly. I.e. it says:
  “titleDyslexia in Children, Dyslexia Symptoms and Lots of Famous People With Dyslexia/titlecategory1/category”

  Notice the “title” in the beginning and “/titlecategory1/category” at the end ?

  The WordPress version our customer is using is version 2.6. Does anyone know what causes this and how to fix it ?

  You did not specify a blog address or reason for posting when you created this topic.

  This support forum is for WordPress.com hosted blogs only. If you have a self-hosted WordPress blog you need to seek help at the WordPress.org forums, not here.

  If you don’t understand the difference, you may find this information helpful.

  You need to inquire over at http://wordpress.ORG/support/ which is where the self-hosted version of wordpress is supported. This is the wordpress.COM free hosting forum, and we simply cannot answer your question since we don’t know.
