 I am so sick and tired of WordPress messing up my scripts on posts and
 pages when switching from text to visual.

 When I put something in there it is because I intend it to be there. I
 don't want WordPress to make changes to my code!!

 I have this line: <td valign="top" align="left" width="100" height="10"><a
 href="infrarod-cyan" onMouseOver=" switchimages('Bimage0',1); return true"
 onMouseOut=" switchimages('Bimage0',0); return true" onClick="
 switchimages('Bimage0',2); return true"><img name="Bimage0" src="/wp-
 chili-matrix/ChiliMatch_C2_R2.jpg" width="100" height="10" border="0"
 alt=""></a></td>


 and it gets changed to this: <td align="left" valign="top" width="100"
 height="10"><a href="infrarod-cyan"><img src="/wp-images/com_C2_R2.jpg"
 alt="" width="100" height="10" name="Bimage0" border="0" /></a></td>

 Which means my mouseover stops working.

 It took me months to figure out that it is WordPress (not the editor) that
 deletes my code and every time I accidentally switch from text to visual
 OR if the editor opens in text the code gets ruined.

 I want to be able to trust that what ever I put in there is going to STAY
 there!!!

Comment:

 The visual editor is not an HTML editor. You can reproduce the issue in
 the [https://www.tinymce.com/ TinyMCE editor demo] too.
 If you're adding custom HTML you shouldn't use the visual editor at all.
