Answer 1

+10 A:

Use verbatim string by prefixing your string with @

string HtmlCode = "";
HtmlCode =
        @"
            <head>
                <style>
                    *{margin: 0px;padding: 0px;font-family: Microsoft Sans Serif;font-size: 11px;}
                </style>
            </head>
        ";

Oh wow, the @ works for multiple lines too! I thought it was only for the '\'. Anyway, thanks much, I learn something new all the time on Stack-O :)

    </head>";
