Please, please stop treating < as HTML tags in comments!

[Don Clugston]

Since the number of HTML tags which are recognised by CodeProject is so limited, can you please change the logic for dealing with them? They should only be treated as tags if they are a recognised HTML tag. It's just *so* painful when using C++ code involving templates. I've seen so many posts where vector < int > x; became vector x; Newbies get caught out on this all the time. Instead, you could treat it as if the 'do not treat <'s as tags' was selected, then do a search-and-replace operation for "@lt;CODE@gt;", replacing it with "<CODE>", etc. This would only require a few lines of ASP code. (Replace @ with ampersand in the above example). This would greatly reduce the number of undecipherable posts in C++ forums!
