Hi, I want to be able (On my 'Link To Us' page) put snippets of HTML into a <TEXTAREA> so it isn't parsed and is easy to copy. however this doesn't validate becuase according to The W3C <A>'s don't go there.
Is there an alternative HTML 4.01 Trans. valid method of displaying code that isn't parsed?


Thanks & Regards, Jonnie

Thanks for those two points. My stupid HTML book doesn't even have <CODE> in it (Thank God for W3's HTML Element List) and I forgot about & lt; and & gt;.
