  according to the faq, we should be able to insert divs in the posts html code. But today I tried to add them, when save the post all divs are removed and converted to paragraphs. That’s is a normal behavior?

  nope, that’s not. i frequently use this tag in my blog that’s not under wp.com, but it’s in a similar wpmu platform. i use it with no problems at all. i think you should try one more time and if it doesn’t work, report to feedback.

  Are you using the Rich Text Editor? That will convert the divs to p tags.

  Try turning it off and see what happens.

  *chuckle* TinyMCE strikes again and mucks up code. :)
