Unwanted jargon appearing when I publish
-
I always write my blog in Microsoft Word and then cut and paste. This used to work fine but now I always find that when I publish, a whole list of script jargon comes up at the top of my writings. All I can do is publish and then edit to delete this. What is going wrong?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Edit the post. Switch to the Text (HTML) editor and delete the excess code from it.
Microsoft Word is a word processing program that’s not compliant with web standards. The result of copy and pasting from Microsoft Word into the Tiny MCE editor in WordPress blogs can be unexpected, and contain a lot of formatting code that’s not compliant unless you know how to use the built-in features in the Visual editor for using Word cleanly. http://en.support.wordpress.com/visual-editor/#pasting-text
Note you need to click the kitchen sink icon #15 at the end of Row 1 to have Row 2 appear. http://en.support.wordpress.com/visual-editor/#row-1
Go here and enable this > Settings > Writing

_ WordPress should correct invalidly nested XHTML automatically
“save changes”I recommend using Windows Live Writer for posting to your blog > http://en.support.wordpress.com/xml-rpc/windows-live-writer/
