mvc3 clickable link into plaintext

Question

is there a way to get the my website in plaintext or in some form to show the tag and the content inside? so that some can copy the whole thing..

I have tried

<plaintext>
<a href="mysite">my website</a>




</plaintext>

but the plaintext messes up all the other tags...

Answer 1

Try replacing each < with < and each > with >, so that

<a href="mysite">my website</a>

becomes

<a href="mysite">my website</a>

and renders in the browser as

<a href="mysite">my website</a>

instead of

my website
