hi,
use this javascript function on KeyDown event

JavaScript

function ValidateTextBox() {
              var txt = document.getElementById('txtTest').value;
              if (txt.indexOf('>') > 0 || txt.indexOf('<') > 0) {
                  alert('Invalid data.');
                  document.getElementById('txtTest').value = '';
              }
          }

ASP.NET

<asp:textbox id="txtTest" runat="server" onkeydown="ValidateTextBox();" xmlns:asp="#unknown"></asp:textbox>

you can also use HTML element
