JavaScript I think does much the same in this situation - that is, IIRC
it is necessary to break up var x = "<"+"script>" ... so as to avoid
confusion in the chips. Which is why I offered up what I did as a
potential solution.

I think zpt does a great job well.

I wasn't sure what was going on with the snippet of code from Luis, and
so my ``solution`` was perhaps useless. :-) Hence the disclaimer.

Sincere regards,
