    Codeblock formatting issue

    I'm adding the functionality to a site to output code in messages, I have a problem keeping the formatting that the code was entered in.

    For example:
    Code:
    <html>
<head>
<title>test</title>
</head>
<body>
      test
</body>
</html>
    The code is being put through htmlspecialchar s() so that it will display, how can I keep the formatting when outputting this code?

      Hi, Ziycon.

      You can overcome this problem by using the <pre> HTML element.

          Thanks for that, I was going to use pre but thought that the htmlspecialchar s() was removing formatting. Thanks for the help.
