It depends which server model you're using. With PHP, pass the recordset
data to htmlentities().

<?php echo htmlentities($row_recordsetName['myVariable']); ?>

You need to ask an ASP expert. You get faster, more helpful replies if
you say which server model you're using.

In ASP, one can use Server.HtmlEncode

Server.HtmlEncode is in the list of formats that can be applied to a
recordset field in DW.
