    }
  </code>
</div>

markupEx

{% markupEx "Example tag"  %}
<p>A <strong>bold</strong> word.
{% endmarkupEx %}

Produces:

<div class="example markup">
  Example tag
  <div>
    <pre><code style="language-markup">
      &lt;p&gt;A &lt;strong&gt;bold&lt;/strong&gt; word.
    </code></pre>
    <div>
      <p>A <strong>bold</strong> word.
    </div>
  </div>
</div>
