I need to include some codes in my html document

Short Answer.

Encode your code using an online HTML Encoder and then put it inside pre

<pre>
    <%--your encoded code goes here--%>
</pre>

Long Answer.

The above will only help you to show your code. If you want proper highlighting for your code, Try something like SyntaxHighlighter

You have to use html entities. Example:

<div>
   Some Stuff
</div>

should be

&lt;div&gt;
   Some Stuff
&lt;/div&gt;

and it will render as the first one
