and and should always be written as entities because they will interfere
with the syntax otherwise. (And sometimes ). On the other hand, utf-8 should
allow you to use actual characters for every other character you are likely to
want to include in your content, and doing so is recommended.
Hi Simon,
You should use HTML entities to encode those characters.
You can view a list of those entities here :
http://www.w3.org/TR/html401/sgml/entities.html
But to answer your question quickly, should be written as gt;, and
as lt;.
Cheers,
Sebastien

How should I code less than and greater than
