Online Tool to Format Code for Putting into Blog Posts
Ed Eliot has created a neat tool to format code for putting into blog posts.
Here's an example of the output it produces:
div#search input {font: 100% Verdana, Sans-serif;}input#search {width: 150px;}#search_button {margin-bottom: -4px;}
Very nice! One request I would have is for the tool to provide a preview of the code.

I would have to agree that it would be easier to have a preview of the code. At first I didn't know what I was doing. :P

Christian, thanks for posting about my tool. Preview functionality would be nice. I'll see if I can add it and generally pretty up the interface.

Ed – that would be great! I wouldn't worry too much about the interface; it's simple but worked fine for me.
Given the choice between functionality and looks, I'll always take functionality!
