Tips to display HTML tags in a blogger post

Many of us would like to show HTML tags in their posts. But when you type the HTML tags and see the outcome you can't see the code lines. This is because the web browser will interpret the HTML tags as an instruction and executes the HTML tag.

This can be overcome by two ways




1. Replace each of

"<" with



and ">" with



However replacing these manually for a larger code is very tedious. To overcome this you can use the HTML tag converter. Just type or paste the HTML tags and check the "Check here to see your code in HTML format" check box. You can view the text code for HTML tags.

2. Using Textarea:

This will help to display the HTML tags written in your post the exact way that you want it to be. Following is the example of how to use the textarea and display HTML tags in your posts with ease.

I want to show my blog site (www.bloggerbasicsforbeginner.blogspot.com) with the help of html tag.

This is how i will use it

<textarea rows="4" cols="40">
<a href="http://bloggerbasicsforbeginner.blogspot.com"></a>

</textarea>

and the outcome will be

<a href="http://bloggerbasicsforbeginner.blogspot.com"></a>
