of course but I dont get this part

Executing PHP code

With Exec-PHP you can execute PHP code in the excerpt and the content portion of your posts and pages (in the following called articles) as also as in text widgets. To execute code, just type in the PHP code as you usually would.

Writing code in articles or text widgets may require some further tuning to the blog and user settings. To have the plugin work properly with PHP code in the content of a users article, do as follows:

* Disable tag balancing ‘WordPress should correct invalidly nested XHTML automatically’ through the ‘Settings > Write’ menu in WordPress
* Disable the WYSIWYG rich editor in the user’s settings through the ‘Users > Your Profile’ menu
* Assign the ‘unfiltered_html’ capability to the user
* Assign the ‘exec_php’ capability to the user

Configuration

did you click the links to each of those listed items? i mean they have screenshots and everything to help you out, all you have to do is follow the directions...

it would also help if you said WHAT you don't get about it.

yea, I did everything you told me to, but I just used an alternative method, I just put in a form instead of a plugin so everything is okay, but do you think you could help me with one more topic, I posted http://www.createblog.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=200676 I actually found out about fotobook through 2amfix :]] just to let you know :]
