If you want to write out large chunks of html and you don't want to change each < and > individually, you can use this: http://www.tutorialt...k/converter.php

You can also write in pre tags?
Then you can also spesify another text color or size for the pre tags
It may also look cool in blockquote:
<pre>This is a tutorial with <head> and <body></pre>
Then you can also spesify another text color or size for the pre tags
It may also look cool in blockquote:
<blockquote><pre>This is a tutorial with <head> and <body></pre></blockquote>

you can also change the visuals for <code> tags...

I have a demo on my main site for someone who was complaining that about <code> not looking like <textarea>s - you can see how I proved it was possible here: http://www.jemjabella.co.uk/demo.php
