Displaying text with angle brackets in pinEdit

Hi,

We are using pinEdit plugin in our application. And we are facing an issue displaying text with angle brackets on pinEdit. When we try to display text having angle brackets (</>), the text between ‘<’ and ‘>’ are parsed as html and the content gets distorted. Also when we use “re<li”, the expression ‘<li’ is understood as list tag and bullet points are inserted in the following text. 

We use two databases. In Firebird database, the text is saved as blob sub_type 1 datatype and in SQL Server database, as ntext datatype. When we display the text straight on the jsp using bean:write of the property, the entire content is displayed without getting distorted. 

Could you please suggest a solution to displaying text with angle brackets, and expressions similar to html, without it getting parsed on pinEdit?

We would really appreciate your help.

Thank you.
