Java EE (Java Enterprise Edition) General Discussion

Hello

I'm looking for some JDK methods that can convert plain text into html.

For example,

Zero is <b>lower</b> than one: 0 < 1

I want to convert this example into html. Word lower should be bold while signs after < should still appear. This means, the method I am looking for should convert signs like <, > into html special chars.

String htmlText = XXX.convert(plainText);

Thanks if you answer quickly!
