Hi,

I am looking for advice on how to configure my forums to best to display code samples.  I think code samples need to display:

• in a fixed pitch font
• include the indentation the original author wanted
• not be subjected to paragraph spacing every time the suthor uses the enter key

I've tried using the html tags <pre></pre> and I added a CSS stye that gave the 'pre' tag a background and a border.  See example at http://www.dynamisys.co.uk/ArticlesDownloads/LeakproofingWindowsApplications/tabid/295/Default.aspx

This gives a satisfactory display format.  The problem is that the FCKEditor makes it really hard to enter and edit the posts.  My procedure is to switch to a raw text box to enter the <pre></pre> tags and to paste the code sample in betweenm them.  When I switch back to rich text view, somtimes the editor does nto display the code sample parts.

Have I missed a far better way fo doing this?

Thanks.
