Obsolete
This feature is obsolete. Although it may still work in some browsers, its use is discouraged since it could be removed at any time. Try to avoid using it.
Summary
The HTML Plaintext Element (<plaintext>) renders everything following the start tag as raw text, without interpreting any HTML. There is no closing tag, since everything after it is considered raw text.
Note: Do not use this element.
- This element has been deprecated since HTML 2 and was never implemented by all browsers; even those that did implement it didn't do so consistently. In addition, it is obsoleted in HTML 5; browsers that still accept it may simply treat it as a
<pre>element, which still interprets HTML within, even though that's not what you probably want. - If the
<plaintext>element is the first element on the page (other than any non-displayed elements), do not use HTML at all. Configure your server to send your page with thetext/plainMIME-type. - Instead of using this element, you should use the
<pre>element or, if semantically adequate, the<code>element. Be sure to escape any "<", ">" and "&" characters, to avoid inadvertently interpreting content as HTML. - A monospaced font can also be applied to a simple
<div>element by applying an adequate CSS style usingmonospaceas the generic-font value in afont-familyproperty.
Attributes
This element has no other attributes than the global attributes, common to all elements.
DOM interface
This element implements the HTMLElement interface.
Implementation note: Up to Gecko 1.9.2 inclusive, Firefox implements the interface HTMLSpanElement for this element.
