The <plaintext> HTML element renders everything following the start tag as raw text, ignoring any following HTML. There is no closing tag, since everything after it is considered raw text.
Warning: Do not use this element.
<plaintext> is deprecated since HTML 2, and not all browsers implemented it. Browsers that did implement it didn't do so consistently.<plaintext> is obsolete; browsers that accept it may instead treat it as a <pre> element that still interprets HTML within.<plaintext> is the first element on the page (other than any non-displayed elements, like <head>), do not use HTML at all. Instead serve a text file with the text/plain MIME-type.<plaintext>, use the <pre> element or, if semantically accurate (such as for inline text), the <code> element. Escape any <, > and & characters, to prevent browsers inadvertently parsing the element content as HTML.font-family style with the monospace generic value.This element has no other attributes than the global attributes common to all elements.
