Post PHP code with HTML tags in Question

Question

I am trying to post block of code like below

$content = 'Header'; $content .= 'sub-heading';

If I post it in <code> tag, HTML tags are not showing,it just show content only..

How to I post above code in one block with HTML tags.?

It maybe not related to Magento, but I could't ask question in stack overflow, that the reason why I am asking here.

To post code blocks add 4 spaces at the beginning of the line. — sv3n, Mar 1, 2018 at 9:19

All lines of your code block have to start with 4 spaces.

Sometime takes too long if your having to space each line.

I often use this free handy tool that formats your code ready for stack overflow

Pro tip: start without the spaces, then select the code and press Ctrl-K to add indentation
