Preformated Text

Source Code:

Resulting Display:

  The PRE tag displays preformatted text in a fixed-width font.

  The PRE element displays all white       space and
                   line
                   breaks
    exactly as they appear inside the <PRE> and </PRE> tags.

Unlike the <XMP> and <PLAINTEXT> tags, the <PRE> tag does not
suppress interpretation of other HTML tags.
Which is why < has been replaced by &lt; in the source code
a number of places above in order to avoid interpretation of the tags.

WORD BREAK

NOTE:

Internet Explorer 6.0:

Wraps the text where the <WBR> tag is found

Netscape 7.1:

Does not support <WBR>

Netscape 4.7:

Does not wrap the text untill it exceeds the width of the longest line in the document, or a </WBR> tag is found

EXAMPLE

Source Code:

Normal Text <XMP>Example Text</XMP> Normal Text

Resulting Display:

Source Code:

Normal Text
<XMP>
  The XMP tag displays preformatted text in a fixed-width font.

  The XMP element displays all white       space and
                   line
                   breaks
    exactly as they appear inside the XMP tags.

Unlike the <PRE> tag, the <XMP> tag does
suppress interpretation of other HTML tags.
Thus it has not been necessary to replace < with &lt; to avoid
interpretation of the tags in the source code for this text.
</XMP>
Normal Text

Resulting Display:

NOTE:

Netscape 7.1:

If a NEWLINE follows right after the <XMP> tag in the source code (possibly with only white space between the <XMP> tag and the NEWLINE character(s)) this line break will litteraly be added to the extra line space inserted between the text coming before the <XMP> tag and the text following the opening <XMP> tag.

In Netscape 7.1 the <XMP>...</XMP> tags appear to have the bizarre side effect that closing HTML tags (starting with "</") is converted into lower case!? Very strange indeed.

Internet Explorer 6.0 and Netscape 4.7:

Does not insert this line break. I.e. the example text is not regarded as starting before the line following the <XMP> tag, if the <XMP> tag is immediately followed by a NEWLINE (possibly with white space between the <XMP> tag and the NEWLINE character(s))
