 * Post title says it really.
    I can’t find an online encoder that stays up for 
   long, or that encodes correctly. Any chance someone could put one of these together
   at all ? I know there are plugins to show code and such, but they look to be 
   geared to more tech stuff, whereas I just want occasional use to display formatting
   examples.
 * Any takers ?

 * You’re just looking for a simple encoder (<tag> = &lt;tag&gt;), like the bbCode
   plugins and such? Would need to decide on whether to have it encode tags naturally,
   force the user to use a symbolic form (::br /::), or check for a code block delimiter(
   such as <htmlcode> … </htmlcode>). The first could cause all sorts of issues (!);
   the latter two come down mainly to personal preference (though if I sprinkled
   posts with tag examples, the last would become a drag).
 * I’m just finishing up a plugin that’s been highlighting my weaknesses in PHP,
   so I could use a change to something more at my level. `:/` I’ll take a look 
   into it.

 * Cheers Kaf – it’s not for users or commenters – just me 🙂
 * If you take a look at my about-T2 page toward the bottom, there is some standard
   WP code. To get that there, I had to go find an encoder, copy the code, paste
   it back and I can never seem to find a reliable encoder for this purpose.. Be
   nice just to have that option from somewhere in WP (right-clicking to get it 
   being just fine !)
