    bug [Done 2.0.0] Truncated email notices if product names contain < symbol

    We have found that email notices get truncated when they are sending info about products with "<" symbols in their titles.

    This problem went un-noticed for a while because the orders and payment were working correctly with the database.

    For example, we have an item in out store called, "Alumni Weekend - Children < 12". When this item is purchased, the email going to the customer and to the admins is truncated at the "<". An example is included below:

    I cannot break this on either TEXT nor HTML emails ...

    What version of Zen Cart are you running?

    Have you any other additional information on this?

    Have you an URL we can test this on?

    We are using version 1.3.7 and we have the google checkout module installed. We quite a did a bit of additional customization to the templates, but nothing in particular to the sales modules.

    I will keep testing it but nothing is breaking thus far ...
