Escaping tags within tags

[get_dave]

Hi guys,

I may be being really dumb but i've forgotten how to output HTML tags on a page. What I want to do is provide an example of link HTML syntax for a site visitor to copy.

Any help would be really appreciated. I am validating XHTML

&lt; instead of < should take care of tag escaping. Also mark your code up in a <code></code> or <pre></pre> tag.

Excellent many thanks!

Also escape any &s as &amp;. If you have any ]]>s then write those as ]]&gt; to maintain well-formedness.
