special symbols in post name

if name/description of post contain special html symbol, like a &lt;title&gt; or &lt;div&gt;, browser process him, then table and js scripts may be broken. we need convert special symbols before showing list. thanks for great free plugin!
Within the context of WP you should always use `esc_html()` rather than `htmlspecialchars()`.
All the same, in this particular case, using `wp_strip_all_tags( $string )` would probably be better.
