using html tag in stax java when writing xml file
===

I am using StAX for creating xml file. I am getting one problem, i want to add html tag in its value but it is not accepting html tag. i.e. if the tag is `<p>` then it will display as `&lt;P&gt;` 

`FileOutputStream fileoutputStream = new FileOutputStream(file);
XMLEventWriter eventWriter = outputFactory.createXMLEventWriter(fileoutputStream, "UTF-8");
XMLEventFactory eventFactory = XMLEventFactory.newInstance();
String value = "<P>F2-000989</P>";
Characters characters = eventFactory.createCharacters(value);
eventWriter.add(characters);`

let me know if it is possible or not?

Thanks,
