Umm, you know how people have part of their page yellow or grey or whatever and then have php or html code on display. How do I do that, if I do that, it does runs the HTML or php. Someone please help.

Wasn't there a tag called <text>? And inbetween <text> and </text>, everything appeared as typed?

Hmm....I thought there used to be a tag that did that...but I don't seem to be able to find what it is...I guess you'll have to stick with the &lt; and &gt;.

Or you can always use <textareas>

He could use text areas, but &lt; and &gt; look better.
