The quick and dirty method would be to put a character filter the end
of your i/o operation that is giving you trouble.

public class Filter
{
public String filter(String input)
{
   // for each special character, convert it into its
   // appropriate escape/ampersand sequence and add it back into the
string
   // in the place of the special character e.g. > ==> &lt
}
}
