formatting with <xmp> tag

[programmerboy]

I am trying to write html tags using <xmp> tag. However, it writes everything in one line only. Is there a way we can format it to look prettier (like an xml document)?

I had to look up what the heck that was. <xmp> was listed as obsolete in html 2.0. Though still understood by some browsers, its support is lacking so you shouldn't use it.
