Answer 1

you can find the default setting or how they're suppose to be at http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS2/sample.html just apply the same style to the element you want to behave as a pre element and voila you're done

p.s. which is basically

pre{ white-space: pre ; display: block; unicode-bidi: embed }
