XF 2.1 How to make pre tags work in page node

[LenKaiser]

I have a page node that is a link to us page. I want to include some HTML that does not get parsed into actual HTML, but show as the code would when you use the BB Code tag "Code" where a person can copy and paste the code into their website. I've tried using the pre tag and it did not work, I also tried using a blockquote but that did not work either (kinda figured it wouldn't but hey why not). I'm actually using the code inside a widget on the page. The widget code is as follows:

<div class="boxinfo"><pre><a href="http://mysite.com" title="My Site Title">My Site Title</a></pre></div>
