Johan,

If the purpose is just to see the code, then you can parse the stream and
replace each of the <> symbols with a substitute. This will cause the
browser to see everything as plain text.
Parse the stream. If character equals < then replace with &lt; If character
equals > then replace with &gt;

With this your code will display correctly on the screen.

Subject: Content type for jsp/html files
