Grid problem < or > in a field

Hi
If I insert a ‘<’ or a ‘>’ in a field of a Grid ( colTypes ed ) , I get unexpected behavior.
Using your example http://dhtmlx.com/docs/products/dhtmlxGrid/samples/02_clipboard/02_pro_clipboard.html
I edited the field Book Tile / ‘Blood and Smoke’
I insert the character ‘<’
If I put ‘Blood< and Smoke’, when editing again appears ‘Blood < and Smoke’.
If I put ‘Blood <and Smoke’, a piece disappears, leaving only ‘Blood’

Either way it’s not good.
In the first case the user does not understand what it is < that appears instead of ‘<’ when editing.
In the second case by writing a character you lose the rest of the text introduced.

The same thing happens by inserting the character ‘>’

How can I avoid this?

thanks

I may have solved the problem by setting the setColTypes (‘edtxt’) instead setColTypes (‘ed’).
I did not understand well why, but it seems to me that this way works fine

edtxt excell type treats the value as a pure text, while the ed - like the html.
