What kind of document type is it if it has <li><b> syntax

I am trying to learn how to work with this type of syntax (&lt;li&gt;&lt;b&gt for use in article publishing on websites. Does anyone know of a good way to work with this type of syntax?

My steps are write the article in Dreamweaver, then convert (find/replace) all the < and >. But how can I like remove all the spaces without doing it by hand?

Is there a way to like convert a basic page from < > syntax into the &lt;li&gt;&lt;b&gt; type syntax and not have any spaces at all?

Thanks guy,

I don't have a clear picture of what you're trying to accomplish. If it's to publish an html document as text, showing the markup, all that's necessary is to use a .txt extension. Well, it would be enough if IE weren't such a PoS. It doesn't honor the server response header nor the extension.

So, in the end, what you're attempting is the route to follow. I would only replace the <, and ignore the >. To what space are you referring?
