XML Data Set breaks the grid

Hi !!

I'm using activewidgets 1.0 in my RCP in a very successful way (a damn good grid by the way !!) and I've discovered a problem while testing.

When I send an XML like this the grid breaks:

<?xml version=\"1.0\"?>
<rows>
<row>
<field1>Row-1-Field-1&lt;test</field1>
<field2>Row-1-Field-2</field2>
</row>
<row>
<field1>Row-2-Field-1</field1>
<field2>Row-2-Field-2</field2>
</row>
</rows>

I did a lot of testing, and I realized that the cause is the &lt; without the &gt;.If I send a &gt; both tags are not displayed but at least the grid does not break.

Is this problem known ? is there a fix for this ?
If anyone needs a test case of this I have a HTML written specifficaly for it. I'd attached it right here but I think this forum does not allow that, don't it ?

Thanks !! bye !!
