hi crane,
        
         Thanks for your reply. Yeah i can write a
small snippet of code to do what u said.But i want
people to be able to save that file.If they do so with
the code then they will have all the <pre> tags.so i
am just wondering if there is some other way to do
it...like writing some instruction in the file that
makes the browser to display the text as it is.

Thanks once again for your reply....
