tag to escape other tags

[hoke]

Does anybody know if there exists a tag that escapes the html parsing.

So I do not have to use < and > anymore

example:

<escape>
<p> bla bla </p>
</escape>

must result in:
<p> bla bla </p>

and not in:
bla bla

help would be greatly appreciated

Not any more.

Use a tool that has search and replace

There was an <xmp>...</xmp> tag in some very early editions of HTML, but I
don't think that there are many browsers that still support it.

There are a few, but they've been deprecated since around HTML 2.0. Use
a script to convert special characters to entities for you.
