Ok, I know I have to use :

&lt; = <
&gt; = >

but I dont know where exactly to put them. I'm trying to show an HTML code for my site visitors to place my Link Button on their sites. I have the code. It's:

<A href="http://freewebs.com/gothic-angelz" target="_blank"><IMG src="http://www.freewebz.com/gothic-angelz/linky1.bmp" border=0 A <></A>

but I need to know how to put the code on my site without my Link Button showing; just the code. Can someone PLEASE help me? Thanks....

You just put your code between the < > I think.

You could also use a text box :

<textarea rows=3 cols=30>
Code goes here
</textarea>

No problem!

Go here (http://www.lissaexplains.com/fun2.shtml) and find all the symbols you need (< and > and /, I think that's it) and replace the symbol with the code you need for each one. *hopes that makes sense* Then just put it straight into your webpage and it should appear like you want it to.

&lt;a href="http://freewebs.com/gothic-angelz" target="_blank"&gt;
&lt;img src="http://www.freewebz.com/gothic-angelz/linky1.bmp" border="0"&gt;
&lt;/a&gt;

and just a quick note... it is best if you supply a GIF or JPG type image instead of BMP. the BMP type is very large to download or display.

Hey, pb&j, I've got a quick question. Why can you use either &lt; and &gt; or &amp;#60; and &amp;#62; for < and >?

computers have different levels of thinking (kinda like knowing different languages).

*nods* Okay, I guess that makes sense. ^_^ Thank you.

You can also use the "xmp" tags:

<xmp><a href="http://freewebs.com/gothic-angelz" target="_blank"> <img src="http://www.freewebz.com/gothic-angelz/linky1.bmp" border="0"> </a></xmp>

I have a question, is the <xmp> tag the same as the <pre> tag?
Thanks

I don't believe it is the same.

another thing to remember is that you shouldn't use regular quotes. Say you had a link code in your site and this was the code:
<a href="url">Click Here</a>
You would want to do it like this:
&lt;a href=&quot;url&quot;&gt;Click Here&lt;/a&gt;

I think slashes(/) are ok, not sure, I just know that on the last html assignment I did in my class I had to correct a page generated from netscape to make it valid with html transitional standars, and I had to replace the quotes("") with &quot;. But I think its easier to use the <xmp></xmp> because the &lt;&gt; &quot; is a pain to type in if you have alot of code to display. I have yet to try to use a textarea though, because my site background is black and the white textarea looks bad.
Lol, well that was long and drawn out, sorry for rambling.

You can also use the "xmp" tags:

<xmp><a href="http://freewebs.com/gothic-angelz" target="_blank"> <img src="http://www.freewebz.com/gothic-angelz/linky1.bmp" border="0"> </a></xmp>
that's what I always use for it...
