If I write a post in this forum I get rendering problems if I'm using the LESSER THEN character. I always have to use the   ampersand lt; 
instead.

Is it possible to correct this behaviour, so it is possible to use such characters in a post?

Copy Past test in Firefox 10ESR:
Not Encoded:

<Users and Groups/Administrative user roles>
<Add>
Select Administrator
Search for e-mail address 


Encoded:
&lt;Users and Groups/Administrative user roles>
&lt;Add>
Select Administrator
Search for e-mail address

The wysiwyg editor should be converting from > to &gt; for you. What browser are you using?

Sorry my post is wrong. I mean the SMALLER character. &lt . The GREATER is working. e.g. Not encoded:<hello> Encoded: &lt;hello> I'm using for this Internet Explorer 8. But I could test on FF10ESR and Chrome 22.

I now did exactly the same what I did in my other post: See question. First with Lesser char NOT encoded and second with encoding.
