html pre tag syntax

Function:Define preformatted text.

Note: Text enclosed in pre elements usually retains spaces and newlines. The text will also be rendered as a fixed-width font. A common application of the <pre> tag is to represent computer source code. Tags that can cause paragraph breaks (such as headings, <p> and <address> tags) must not be included in a block defined by <pre>. Although some browsers will interpret the paragraph end tag as a simple line break, this behavior is not the same in all browsers. Allowed text in pre elements can include physical styles and content-based style variations, as well as links, images, and horizontal dividers.

Note: If you want to use the <pre> tag to define computer source code, such as HTML source code, please use symbol entities to represent special characters, such as "<" represents " <", ">" represents ">", "&" represents "&".

html pre tag example

<html>
  <meta charset="utf-8">
<body>
  <pre>
    离离原上草，一岁一枯荣。
    野火烧不尽，春风吹又生。
  </pre>
  <p>可以看到上面我们没有做任何的CSS渲染，文字依然按照我们排列好的形式格式化输出</p>
</body>

</html>
