Read our Farewell Blog Post for more details.
most of the time when you are using a WYSIWYG editor like Joomla FCK or one of the other editors it will try to "clean" it up for you.
Rockettheme has created the RokPad which will eliminate this. Just go into your user account turn on Rokpad as the editor and insert your code. but, anytime you go back to that page with the editor on it will clean it up again.
if you use TinyMCE: you can edit the settings in the tinymce plugin "Do Not Clean HTML Entities → Yes (In Joomla! version 1.5.15 and later, it is called Entity Encoding -> Raw)"
