Greater / Less than sign (< >) gets converted in HTML tag (< >) on screen
Hi,
We have a requirement to show greater than / less than sign (i.e. <>) on screen and I am passing this parameter:
"<" + .MyProperty + ">"
but unfortunately they get converted into < and > on screen (and also PDF generated from Report Browser) automatically. I tried to use escape (backslash sign) but PRPC is not letting me save the rule. Is there a way to avoid this error on PRPC?
Thanks,

Hello HarukaK6,
Thanks for posting your query in PSC :)
Could share screenshot showing the configuration used to display these characters? Are you trying to display these characters on the screen or in PDF? Also, mention the PRPC version?
If activity is being used to set the parameter, then refer the solution mentioned in the post.

Hi Rincy
Thank you for your replay.
I am working in the same team, so let me share the screenshot.
Please see the attached for details and let we know if you have any suggestions.
(the PRPC version is 7.2)
Thank you

Hi,
Can you try with giving the ASCII codes for the < and > symbols. I had a similar issue while showing some special characters in a label on UI. I solved it by doing so. Hope it works for you too:)

Hello Yang,
I tried to replicate the reported behavior in Pega 7.2.2; however, I do not the see the < or >. Instead, I see <> characters.
Refer the attached screenshot for your quick reference. For your information, I have used subject as "<" + .ID + ">"
Are you seeing any error while opening the email like the post?
