what is the point in a code function that isn't fixed width, THAT'S ALL IT'S SUPPOSED TO DO AND IT'S NOT DOING IT ARGH

A minor change to the code is all that is required, simply set the template to use a fixed width font inside the code tag and it is cured.

The administrator (with FTP access) has to apply the code change, it isn't something a normal user can do.
