Does anyone know if you can subsitute milk for water in a cake recipe and also can you substitute butter for oil?

If you wish to substitute butter for oil, use 1 1/4 cup butter for 1 cup oil.

When recipes call for oil without specifying the kind, it means polyunsaturated oil. When recipes call for butter, use a butter high in polyunsaturated.
