<PLAINTEXT> is the unstoppable monster of HTML. <PLAINTEXT> causes all remaining text in the document to be rendered exactly as it was typed in, including all tags and even the document tags. Whereas <XMP> ignores formatting from its own start to its own end, <PLAINTEXT> ignores all formatting for the rest of the document, displaying all text exactly as is. It cannot be stopped, it cannot be turned off. <PLAINTEXT> is deprecated because it messes up the balance of the document tags (<HTML>, <BODY ...> to name a few).

This document produces this document:

<HTML>
<HEAD><TITLE>Everyone Named Joe</TITLE></HEAD>
<BODY>
<H1>Everyone Named Joe</H1>

<PLAINTEXT> 
Joe Aabie
Joe Abaman
Joe Abba
Joe Abbacazam

[snip]

Joe Zyzoni
Joe Zzyzym

</BODY>
</HTML>
