It sounds to me like you're not storing literal HTML formatting instructions in your data, but rather escaped HTML. Why not just store unescaped HTML? If that's not an option, you might use a custom tag to perform the unescaping for you. Someone might have already done this, or you might have to write your own. Basically, this custom tag would find each escape character sequence and replace it with the matching literal HTML character.
