内联预格式化？

Question

This should be easy points as I forgot how and can't find it on Google.

How do I accomplish something like this:

Blah Blah Blah some code Blah Blah

in wordpress? pre doesn't work as it will give a line break.

Answer 1

It may be better to use <code> than <pre> to display inline code, for two reasons:

• it's treated as inline
• the semantics of <code> are a much better match than <pre>

But definitely use CSS classes (as @Blender points out).

There's a caveat: <code> doesn't escape <> brackets, so if you want to display HTML then you have to manually escape brackets as < and > . (which you should really do anyway; tags in HTML really should be clearly distinguished from data)

Answer 2

<tt>text</tt> gives text

Wait... Wordpress? What HTML tags does it support?

Answer 3

You can have an inline <pre> by adding some custom CSS to your theme's stylesheet:

pre.inline {
   display: inline;
}

Now, when you write:

I am some <pre class="inline">code, see?</pre> Foo.

It shows up like this:

I am some code, see? Foo.
