RE: Writing a file with CFFILE

[Mosh Teitelbaum]

Replace all ">" characters with "&gt;" and all "<" characters with "&lt;".
So you'd use:

        <CFSET dspOutput = Replace(output, ">", "&gt;", "ALL")>
        <CFSET dspOutput = Replace(dspOutput, "<", "&lt;", "ALL")>
        <textarea name="contents"><cfoutput>#output#</cfoutput></textarea>
