I’m assuming you were copy/pasting code from the web page into the Visual post editor in WordPress, yes? When you do that, you also copy the HTML tags and paste those too.

You need to remove those stray tags from around and from within the shortcode. WordPress does not support have the HTML within the shortcode.

See this QuickTip on working with shortcodes.

This FAQ, the top couple paragraphs, explain how to fix this.

Basically, if you completely delete the shortcode while in the Text tab of the post editor and manually re-type it things will be fine. This is the best way to work with shortcode no matter what plugin you’re working with.

Hope that helps!
