If you send it to FF with an xml mime type it will parse as XML and so b will be closed before the text. If you send it with an html mime type, then what you _should_ get is the same as if the input had been >abc with a visible > sign, but this depends on low level SGML arcane parsing rules and no desktop browser uses a full SGML parser, so in practice you get whatever you get.
