Question...

Right, if I want to show </textarea> in a textbox without closing it (the tag), how can I do it?

eg



<textarea>
Hello, here is my text box <textarea></textarea>

</textarea>
Thanks

<textarea>
Hello, here is my text box <textarea><code></textarea></code>

</textarea>
I think.

htmlentities (http://www.php.net/htmlentities)

or without php:

Open tag:

&lt;textarea&gt;

Close tag:


&lt;/textarea&gt;</span>

No problem, but you should know this as it is part of PHP security :P

You never echo any html generated by a user without running it in htmlentities else your site is open to XSS (cross-site scripting).
