I thought I'd try this, without much hope. It works in Firefox Opera
Safari & Chrome; in IE8, the script is executed but not shown.  IE 9/10 ?

  <!doctype HTML>
  <title>test</title>
  <body>
  aaa
  <script type="text/javascript"
   style="display:block; white-space:pre; font-family:monospace;">
  A = 5 + 7
      document.writeln(A)
  </script>
  zzz
  </body>

Result shown :

        aaa

        A = 5 + 7
            document.writeln(A)
        12 zzz

In Firefox, copy'n'paste of that does not copy the script part.
In Opera, Safari, Chrome, it does.
