Kulvinder,

We ran into this problem also (while rendering event Description
fields).  As a simple / hacky workaround, we create our markup w/curly
braces (versus angled brackets) and then string replace them on the
app side.

For example, say your goal was to have the following in a given
event's Description field:

I'd really like a link <a href="#">here</a>

you'd actually enter the following in the Description field:

I'd really like a link {a href="#"}here{/a}

and then do string replaces

{ with <

} with >

in your application that fetches the data (calendar feed).

Like I said, its definitely a hack, but simple and its been working
for us.

(Also, if you thought you'd actually need curly braces in your
Description fields and this scheme would break something, you could
use slightly more complex string tokens to create your markup such as
{{{ and }}}...)

Hope that helps,

-adam
