Use <pre></pre> or <code></code> tags around it like:

 html Syntax (Toggle Plain Text) 
<pre>
#include &lt;iostream&gt;
int main(int argc, char** argv)
{
  std::cout &lt;&lt; "Hello World!\n";
  return 0;
}
</pre>
<pre>
#include &lt;iostream&gt;
int main(int argc, char** argv)
{
  std::cout &lt;&lt; "Hello World!\n";
  return 0;
}
</pre>

Note the < . Make sure you encode any HTML entities (<, >, &, etc.) so they don't get mixed in with the markup
