You don't *need* to replace with &quot;
However, you will need to replace any ampersands with &amp; ( <, >, and
& are characters with intrinsic qualities in html).  You need to
replace & before you replace anything else: if you do it after
repalcing < and > you'll catch your &lt; and &gt;, ending up with
&amp;lt; and &amp;gt; which is not what you want.
