The <xmp> tag is still fully supported by FireFox and Chrome as of 2024 but it is fully unusable within BlueGriffon because BlueGriffon will replace the characters > & < with > & < whenever switching between Source and Wysiwyg views. This causes the characters to render incorrectly within FireFox and Chrome. This is only relevant to the <xmp> tag and no other HTML tags exhibit this behavior.

In other words, <xmp> Hello <world> & be good!<xmp> must NOT be changed to <xmp> Hello &lt;world&gt; &amp; be good!<xmp> when inside the <xmp tag, because it will then render INCORRECTLY in FireFox and Chrome.
