One of the simplest ways to go about this would just be to replace "<" with "<", and ">" with ">". This way, you don't have to worry about balancing the tag beginnings and endings, and it won't break a message using the angle brackets to mean "less than" and "greater than". Update: I probably got the idea from the forum at Joel On Software. Depending on how this is being used and your users, may also want to have a note telling the user that they can't use HTML to format their submission. Another Update: Changed the second angle bracket to the closing angle bracket, changed the entities to match. How do I love -d? Let me count the ways...
