The simple solution is to not give wpautop
anything to chew on.
function contact_us() {
$str = "<p>Here's the low down on what to do</p>";
$str .= '<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="http://code.jquery.com/ui/1.10.0/themes/base/jquery-ui.css"/>';
$str .= '<link rel="stylesheet" href="http://studiocloud.com/css/validationEngine.jquery.css" type="text/css"/>';
// etc
$return $str;
}
Your generated code won’t be formatted, but there is no reason it should be. We are long past the days of static HTML, at least I am ( “Thank you” to the Lords of Kobol ), where such formatting mattered. Now, all that formatted is just unnecessary characters that have to travel down the wire.
