how do i put codes ((i.e. a stylesheet)) in a xanga entry and have it come up as normal text not as the code itself ((say i wanted to show someone how to bold text using <b> but i didnt want it the text to be bolded i just want the <b> and the </b> to come up))

For bold, itatlic, and underline, you could always tell the person to press ctrl + i; itatlic. Ctrl + u; underline. Ctrl + b; bold.
or check the html button and type in <Textarea>CODEHERE/WHATEVER ELSE</textarea> or, dont check the html thing at all and type in <b>WORDS</b> - will make it bold when you check the html button, but it wont work if you dont. Did that make sense?

oh do you mean how do you show the code? so like:
this is how you make text bold: <b>BOLD</b> and have it show up like that? well instead of typing "<" type "<" so... here... < = < > = > is that what you meant? |

example: <xmp>CODEHERE</xmp> |
