I'm sure there's a template that you could use (on wikipedia) or make ( on your own private wiki) which wraps your text in a div with some special CSS. The pre tag means preformatted, which is why unlike other HTML tags it pays attention to whitespace like tabs new lines and more than one consecutive space. Using a div with a background color, border and padding would provide the wrapping you want plus any style you are after. To integrate the HTML code into an article or template you will need to use the <nowiki> tags around the HTML tags. - Trevor Sent from my iPod On Feb 9, 2009, at 1:03 AM, Jelle De Loecker &lt;skerit(a)kipdola.com&gt; wrote:
