[ModernUI] HTML entities are incorrectly escaped in generated report

[sino1641]

Prerequisites

• I am using the latest version of Locust
• I am reporting a bug, not asking a question

Description

Description

I've encountered an issue where the greater-than symbols (>) in the Locust Web UI report are being rendered as their HTML entity equivalents (>). This issue occurs when downloading the report, which should display these symbols correctly.

Expected Behavior

The downloaded report should display the > symbol as it is, without converting it to the > HTML entity.

Actual Behavior

When I download the report from the Locust Web UI, all instances of the > symbol are being converted to >, which is not the expected output.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Run a Locust test with the Web UI enabled.
2. After the test, go to the 'Download Data' tab.
3. Click on 'Download' to get the report.
4. Open the downloaded report and observe that the > symbols are replaced with >.

Command line

locust -f mylocustfile.py

    user.addCustomSuccessEntryToStatistics(f'A -> B', 'Scenario Progress', int(time.time() - start_time), responseLength=timeLeftInSeconds)
