Breaking Code???

[iwillbekingin2030]

i'm having trouble with blogger...i have some code that i want to show on blogger...the code is for embedding images but blogger keeps showing the embedded image...i've tried breaking the code but i doesn't work. How can i properly break the code to stop blogger from embedding the image..or is there additions i can make to the code that tell blogger not to embed it? any helpful ideas or ways to solve this problem are much appreciated. :p

 

 

example code:

 

<a href=examplewebsite.com target="_newwin"><img src=http://www.examplecode.com/334aadcf.jpg border="0" title="Example" /></a>

Have you tried enclosing the code with something like (code goes here)?

Breaking Code????Response

 

adding brackets just makes them appear before and after the image...i have also tried putting DELETE THIS PART in the code...but then blogger just embeds empty boxes.

 

ty for the suggestions though.

Partial Solution...but not how i'd like

 

i found a useful code on yahoo answers...

 

<textarea>code here</textarea>

 

it works but it makes a tiny box that i then have to scroll through...the box is very ity bitty...this won't due...so i thought i'd post the code here incase anyone knows any add-ons so i can loose the scroll and widen the area for my text to show. i need the whole code to be seen at once.

I only know HTML and I don't know what language your blog is written in or if it is using a program too. But one thing that might work is to eliminate the beginning and end tags. This might put the code as a text but it's hard to say without knowing more.

 

It might render it as plain text then and hopefully won't break the rest of the page.

 

Remove the < at the beginning and the > at the end of the statement. Better yet remove the < at the beginning and the </a> at the end. Then just add the comment that they will need to be added to the rest of the code.

If your wanting to place the HTML code inside a textbox (e.g, <textarea>) you can use the cols and rows attributes to make the textarea larger....

 

E.g,

 

<textarea cols="20" rows="50">Your HTML Code Here</textarea>

defining the number of colums and rows worked great...thanks.:D

If you want a background image inside your textarea?

 

 

<style type='text/css'>

textarea {

background-image: url('backgound.gif');

}

</style>
