Preformatted Text
Typographically, preformatted text is not the same thing as code. Sometimes, a faithful execution of the text requires preformatted text that may not have anything to do with code. Most browsers use Courier and that’s a good default — with one slight adjustment, Courier 10 Pitch over regular Courier for Linux users. For example:
“Beware the Jabberwock, my son! The jaws that bite, the claws that catch! Beware the Jubjub bird, and shun The frumious Bandersnatch!”
Code
Code can be presented inline, like <?php bloginfo('stylesheet_url'); ?>
, or within a <pre>
block. Because we have more specific typographic needs for code, we’ll specify Consolas and Monaco ahead of the browser-defined monospace font.
#container {
float: left;
margin: 0 -240px 0 0;
width: 100%;
}
Blockquotes
Let’s keep it simple. Italics are good to help set it off from the body text. Be sure to style the citation.
Good afternoon, gentlemen. I am a HAL 9000 computer. I became operational at the H.A.L. plant in Urbana, Illinois on the 12th of January 1992. My instructor was Mr. Langley, and he taught me to sing a song. If you’d like to hear it I can sing it for you.
— HAL 9000
