How To Replace < with> with > using jquery

Question

I have a page that is part of a backend CRM admin panel. On that page the HTML output comes from some PHP functions that I can\'t access. And that HTML automatically changes

Answer 1

The simplest thing to do would be

$('#test').each(function(){
    var $this = $(this);
    var t = $this.text();
    $this.html(t.replace('<','<').replace('>', '>'));
});
