i have a little question about the verbatim environment in latex…..
my problem is how can i write "\end{verbatim}" inside of a verbatim environment, it supposed that everything inside a verbatim is written just like it looks but this is the string to end the environment, so how can i do this?

You can use the listings package. It supports many different languages and there are lots of options for customising the output.
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{listings}
\begin{document}
\begin{lstlisting}[language=html]
<html>
<head>
<title>Hello</title>
</head>
<body>Hello</body>
</html>
\end{lstlisting}
\end{document}
It seems to me that what you really want, is to customize the look of the captions. This is most easily done using the caption package. For instructions how to use this package, see the manual (PDF). You would probably need to create your own custom caption format, as described in chapter 4 in the manual.
Edit: Tested with MikTex:
\documentclass{report}
\usepackage{color}
\usepackage{xcolor}
\usepackage{listings}
\usepackage{caption}
\DeclareCaptionFont{white}{\color{white}}
\DeclareCaptionFormat{listing}{\colorbox{gray}{\parbox{\textwidth}{#1#2#3}}}
\captionsetup[lstlisting]{format=listing,labelfont=white,textfont=white}
% This concludes the preamble
\begin{document}
\begin{lstlisting}[label=some-code,caption=Some Code]
public void here() {
goes().the().code()
}
\end{lstlisting}
\end{document}

I think it might be impossible in a
verbatimenvironment -- at least, that's what Lamport says in the LaTeX book (first paragraph on pg. 64). However, you can do it with the\verbcommand:\verb+\end{verbatim}+works just fine (and in fact, you can use any character instead of+as long as you make them match).That said, the
listingspackage is smart enough to have an escape character. For example,does exactly what you're looking for. (Again, pick a different character than
+if you're already using that for something else.)
