GtD -

If you type it in your word processor, using a monospaced font such as Courier, and get it so that it lines up the way your want it, the only html needed is the <pre> tag just in front of it and the </pre> tag at the end.

It will display in ALL browsers just the way you typed it.

If someone copies it from the web page and pastes it into their word processor, it may revert to their default font, which may not be monospaced. All that's usually required is to highlight it all and change it to Courier, and it should look just like it did on the screen.

The "pre" stands for "preformatted" and all browsers should display it as intended.

But of course you should use whatever works best for you.
