    You need to use the #preserve helper to convert the newlines in the pre to newline entities, like so:

    %pre.code
    = preserve do
        :escaped
            <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"
                "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
            <html>
                <head></head>
                <body>
                    <form>
                        <input type="text" name="empID" />
                        <input type="submit"/>        
                    </form>   
                </body>
            </html>

    In the future, you’ll be able to nest filters, so you can do :preserve:escaped.
