textarea or something

[thebloggerformerlyknownas]

I’m trying to create a ‘widget’ for a blog. I would like to add the code so it can be copied by readers onto their own blogs/websites (and then copied from their sites by their reader and so on). I’ve tried using a textarea to place the code inside, but I’ve ended up confusing myself.

I would be eternally grateful if someone was able to un-confuse me.



<div align="center">
<table border="1" cellpadding="5" cellspacing="0" style="border-collapse: collapse" bordercolor="#111111" bgcolor="#FFFFFF" width="100%" id="AutoNumber1">
<tr>
<td width="100%">
<p align="center"><a href="http://www.birdlifemalta.org/" target="_blank">
<img src="http://i1176.photobucket.com/albums/x330/TheBloggerFormerlyKnownAs/blood-text.png" border="0" alt="Photobucket" width="159" height="53" /></a>
<br />

Are you specifying the cols and rows for your textarea? Otherwise, what is not happening?
