How to add plain text code in a webpage?
html
Solution
Look at how this website itself achieves this:
<p>For example, if I have <code><p><div></div></p></code>, I want the div to display in the browser as text not have the browser interpret it as html. Is this complicated to do?</p>
You need to replace the < and > with their HTML character entities.
Problem
I know it is possible because this website does it, but I tried researching how and just got a bunch of junk, so how do I add tags to a website paragraph without the browser interpreting it as code. For example, if I have `<p><div></div></p>`, I want the div to display in the browser as text not have the browser interpret it as html. Is this complicated to do? I have been writing tutorials for school, and it would be much easier if I could add the code directly to the webpage in text form instead of images, so students can copy and paste it.
