Display html example code within html

We have a need to be able to display html examples/information like this:

id="BannedCharactersList"><val>%</val><val>&amp;</val><val>!</val><v
al>&quot;</val></data>

i.e: a document on how to change the content of an xml, asp or html file to
fix a bug.

I am entering this content using a WYSIWYG HTML editor. Unfortunately, the
editor insists on trying to interpret the code.

Is there a tag to cause this code to be ignored?

Thanks,

Jake

Get a better editor.

Not any more (since you can't represent the HTML code for "End of section
that shouldn't be interpreted as HTML" as that would end the section that
shouldn't be interpreted as HTML! Entities are much better.
