I tried the following using the call to htmlspecialchars()
not sure why it is insn't working.
I get the output:
<a href='test'>Test</a>
Thank you.

//script
<?
$new = htmlspecialchars("<a href='test'>Test</a>", ENT_QUOTES);
echo $new;
?>
// this is what is output:<a href='test'>Test</a>
// instead of this...
// <a href='test'>Test</a>
