* Replaces characters that may be confused by a HTML

* <p>
* Any data that will appear as text on a web page should

* that comes from untrusted sources such as Internet users.
* A common mistake in CGI programming is to ask a user for
* data and then put that data on a web page. For example:<pre>
* Server: What is your name?
* User: <b>Joe<b>
* Server: Hello <b>Joe</b>, Welcome</pre>
* If the name is put on the page without checking that it doesn't
* contain HTML code or without sanitizing that HTML code, the user
* could reformat the page, insert scripts, and control the the
* content on your web server.
* <p>
* This method will replace HTML characters such as > with their
* HTML entity reference (&gt;) so that the html parser will
* be sure to interpret them as plain text rather than HTML or script.
* <p>
* This method should be used for both data to be displayed in text
* in the html document, and data put in form elements. For example:<br>
* <code><html><body><i>This in not a &lt;tag&gt;
* in HTML</i></body></html></code><br>
* and<br>
* <code><form><input type="hidden" name="date" value="<i>This data could
* be &quot;malicious&quot;</i>"></form></code><br>
* In the second example, the form data would be properly be resubmitted
* to your CGI script in the URLEncoded format:<br>
* <code><i>This data could be %22malicious%22</i></code>
