String &lt; and &gt; characters after clamp with custom HTML will convert to <>

[zmeiPop]

Using clamp for displaying list of emails (chrome). Email format is a standard outlook format

Smith, John (EY123987) <john[email protected]>; Simpson, Homer (EY123987) <homer[email protected]>...

Clamp replace &lt; with <, and browser understands it as a HTML element, thus loosing text <[email protected]>

Issue is on this line

element.innerHTML = target.nodeValue + ' ' + truncationHTMLContainer.innerHTML + opt.truncationChar;

I have applied a fix on local copy of clamp.js file

element.innerHTML = escapeHtml(target.nodeValue) + ' ' + truncationHTMLContainer.innerHTML + opt.truncationChar;

Where escapeHtml is

function escapeHtml(unsafe) {
            return unsafe
                 .replace(/&/g, "&")
                 .replace(/</g, "&lt;")
                 .replace(/>/g, "&gt;")
                 .replace(/"/g, "&quot;")
                 .replace(/'/g, "&#039;");
        }

Please fix it in a main version
