<CODE></CODE>

Display text as computer code

Element is used to show small portions of computer code typically in a mono-spaced font.

        <html>
        <head>
        <title>Some Title</title>
        </head>
        <body>
            .
            .
==>>    <CODE>let a = b + c</CODE>
            .
            .
        </body>
        </html>

Typically you would use this to show an example of code embedded in some other text. To show long bits of code or multiple lines, you would use the PRE element.

HTML 3.0 Draft

Adds language related attributes.

Attributes common to almost all of the tags permitted in the document body include ID, LANG and CLASS. You probably won't be using any of these tags for a while but I've included them so you know they are coming.

ID: A name to be used as a target for links or for naming particular elements in a style sheet. These take the place of the HTML 2.0 <A NAME="somename">Some Name</A> construct that defines internal document links.
LANG: An ISO standard language abbreviation that defines language specific elements to be used.
CLASS: Used to assign a class name to a tag.
An example of these attributes in use is:: <CODE ID="topicone" LANG="en-US" CLASS=section>let a = b + c</CODE>
