## Installation

 1. Copy code-markup.php into your WordPress plugins directory (wp-content/plugins).
 2. Log in to WordPress Admin. Go to the Plugins page and click Activate for Code Markup.
 3. Go to the Options page and click Writing. Make sure “WordPress should correct invalidly
    nested XHTML automatically” is NOT checked. (Otherwise it may do funny things to
    your code listings.)

## FAQ

  What is this good for?

The plugin allows you to quickly copy and paste code into your blog, and add HTML
markup to it to emphasise certain parts of it. Normally this is not possible without
a lot of fiddly manual editing.

  what tags are allowed by default?

If the code block has its lang attribute set to html or xhtml, then no tags are 
allowed: all tags are escaped and will display as typed. Otherwise the following
tags are allowed: em strong b i ins del a span

  How do I change the default behaviour?

To make the code block render as straight HTML, set the code block’s “markup” attribute
to “all”. In this case, make sure that you have typed correct HTML!

To make the code block display exactly as typed, set the code block’s “markup” attribute
to “none”.

To allow the default tags to be rendered as HTML, even in HTML code, set the code
block’s “markup” attribute to “default”.
