< in code sample causes following code to not appear in prettified output

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. this line: for (int i=0; i<s.length(); i++) 
will truncate the output right after i (there is no space between i and <)
if you add a space and get
for (int i=0; i < s.length(); i++)
then everything works fine.

Strangely it can handle Hashtable<Integer> just fine, and '<' is no problem 
either wh

2.
3.
(Please include HTML, not just your source code)

What is the expected output?  What do you see instead?

I certainly expected it all but I only got up until the i before the <

What version are you using?  On what browser?

Safari 6.1.1 and

Please provide any additional information below.

Prettify prettifies HTML, so you need to make sure the input is valid HTML.

    for (int i = 0; i<s.length(); i++)

is equivalent to the HTML

    for (int i = 0; i
    <s junk></s>

You can either replace HTML special characters with entities

    for (int i = 0; i<s.length(); i++)

or wrap it in an XMP element ( 
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/xmp ) instead of a 
<pre> or <code>

    <xmp class="prettyprint">for (int i = 0; i<s.length(); i++)</xmp>

thats a no go; at least in safari it just renders like this:

and note that it STILL stops a i.

adding html tags like < isn't really a reasonable option if you have to go an 
HTML'ify your code every time you update it �.. I guess putting in the spacing 
is easier, but really - you guys can't fix this ??

What's a no go?  You haven't attached any HTML to this bug.

I don�t have to I simply did as you guys said - change pre or code to XML but 
that didn�t render by safari!!

If you want help with your problem, then you have to give me enough information 
to figure out what you're doing wrong.

I am not doing anything wrong - I did exactly as you said�.

I reported the problem that �for (i=0; i<x; �. 
stops rendering after the i in the �i<x� �.

I figured out that putting SPACE before and after <, so �i < s�
would continue the rendering, so it was caused by lack of spacing�..

It as suggested that either putting in spacing or (stupider!) to turn all < 
into <,
which of core is NOT a reasonable thing to do if you are trying to 
server source code nicely rendered on the fly - typical you are serving
from actual code in a system so changing your < to < is futile.

then you guys suggested replacing <pre �. with <xml �.

and I wrote back with the result of replacing pre with xml: no rendering of any 
kind.
that is where we are. if you want html then here you go:

<pre class="prettyprint linenums code�>
some code here
</pre>

renders correctly if you have spaces before (and perhaps after �??) your <

<xml class="prettyprint linenums code�>
some code here
</xml>

does not render anything - just give the code back on a white background;

echo '<pre class="prettyprint linenums code">';

$file = file_get_contents($_GET["file"]);
echo $file;

echo '</pre>�;

is the snippet of PHP I use to dynamically load source files and display them!

> then you guys suggested replacing <pre. with <xml.

What I actually said was "or wrap it in an XMP element".  Note the 'p' at the 
end is not an 'l'.

oh so you did ;-) my apologies very much and you are right - apparently I can�t

Well it shouldn't happen to me.... I teach computer science and tell
at students when they can't read ;-)
