Displaying Variables with HTML code in it?

[YvonneTsang]

I have a variable that retrieves some HTML code and I want to output the literal version of the code onto the screen with a label or span. so if I get Yvonne<br>Tsang from the input. I want the span to display

Yvonne<br>Tsang

not

Yvonne
Tsang

How do I go about doing this??

How about:

Variable(&quot;first_name&quot & &quot;<&quot; & &quot;br&quot; & &quot;>&quot; & Variable(&quot;last_name&quot

* * * * * * * * * * *

you'll need to incorpurate some character entities
try this one out
dim str
str = &quot;Yvonne&#60;BR&#62;Tsang&quot;
Response.Write str _______________________________________________
_{{ str = &quot;sleep is good for you. sleep gives you the energy you need to function&quot;;
ptr = /sleep/gi;Nstr = str.replace(ptr,&quot;coffee&quot;alert(Nstr); }}

Replace the second parameter in my function calls with
