I'm looking for the best way to show html-tags as text in a HTML document.

Hi, everone, I'm looking for the best way to show html-tags as text in a HTML document. Like how to show ' <p> I'm a paragraph</p>' as text, without the html tags disappear, in a html document. Thanks to taking the time to helping me. wanna.be/webdesigner :-) ! Keep coding!

In order to use such characters, you need to use escape characters. <p></p> would be written as: & lt;p& gt; &lt;/p& gt; I had to add a space between the & symbol and the two letters as it just reverts to normal angled brackets so remember to remove the spaces when testing.

You can do that with javascript. For example, if you wan to write "<test>Hello</test>" in the element with id "me", use: document.querySelector("#me").innerText += "<test>Hello</test>";
