You need to use &'s. Thus "<" is "&lt;". The ; is required.
More syntax can be found in

As to the substantive, I do think that the Web is the way to go. Putting
the URL in each posting would also avoid "Where is the FAQ questions". The
only drawback to the Web (for Europeans at least) is its sloth, particularly
for transatlantic traffic. The US is often only available before the East
Coast gets up! We are pleased when transfer rates get into the hundreds of
bytes per second!
