Just output the raw data as is, with < and >. Don't unescape before rendering.

One option could be to use the StringEscapeUtils.escapeXML method in the Apache Commons Lang API.

Alternatively, simply escape the XML entities - i.e. replace

>     <     "     &     '

with

&gt; &lt; &quot; &amp; &apos;
