Oh. Yes, it is technically correct to put <script> inside <pre>. But I 
don't think it's a good idea. You would anyway have to have two copies 
of the script code if you wish to show both the code and its results, so 
you could just as well have it in a variable. Or you could have code 
that copies the content of a <script> element into a visible element.
