[jira] Issue Comment Edited: (HADOOP-6151) The servlets should
quote html characters
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-6151?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12731727#action_12731727 ]

I believe the transforms should be:
1. & -> &amp;
2. < -> &lt;
3. > -> &gt;
4. ' -> &apos;
5. "-> &quot;
As long as we do those transforms, any html that the user includes in their data will just be treated as literal text rather than html commands.
