Like it say's. It doesn't seem to be working for me in Wordpress.
All I want to do is have a box where I can put code, for my readers to be able to copy and paste it elsewhere.
Very common around the web.

Everything that I have tried, strips the code, especially <script> tags, when I save it, or it displays what the code creates.

Anyone got a quick solution?

Too much. Too complicated for users.

Duh, never mind I got it.:o
I forgot that Wordpress MU strips code embeds by default unless you edit one of the files or apply a plug in.
That's why all of my code kept disappearing.
