I have a weird question?

I have people ask me how to do things here on the forum, or by PM or e-mail haviong to do with HTML.

Whenever I try to write back and explain it, of course writing out the HTML results in the code actually working (DUH!)

But I noticed in Eliazabeth's articles that she can demonstrate HTML and it doesn't result in code - just the letters.

How do you do that?!?! crazy

The trick is to "hide" the code so the browser can't read it. Instead of bracketing the code in < > marks, use the entity name for each symbol. For a less-than sign it's &lt; and the greater-than sign is &gt;. The entity names let you sneak code past the html detector in your browser.
