What If Someone Uses My Delimiter In Their Comment?

Hello All,

I'm making a comment form for my website that will store the comments
in
a flat file with some sort of delimiting character. However, I'm
wondering what will happen if someone uses my delimiter within their
comment. I thought one way to protect againt this would be to choose a
character like < and convert all < to &lt . Is there a function in PHP
that does this automatically?

Thanks,

Jacob

I've answered you already in some other ng.
It would have appeared here if done correctly.

Sorry, I meant to post in comp.lang.php but accidentally posted in
alt.php first. I will try not to do so in the future.
