[break][/break]Why to Escape HTML ?
Some characters holds special meaning in some context, then if we want to use those characters apart from that special meaning we have to escape them, for example web browsers parse html tags(whatever is inside <>) and does not display them, if you want display them properly, then you have to escape them by converting < to < and > to >.
