Dear Genner,
     This can be fixed by modifying the strip_tags_more function in your moodle directory/mod/chat/lib.php file.

In my lib.php, I replaced the strip_tags_more function with the following:
////////////////////////////////////////
function strip_tags_more($theText) {
    //This goes through the string and replaces all of the "<" and ">" with there
    //HTML code equivalent, so that they display in the chat window correctly
        $theText = str_replace("<", "&lt;", $theText);
        $theText = str_replace(">", "&gt;", $theText);

  // Add our own popup feature (optional)
    if (strstr($theText,"123456789")) {
        $theText = " < script>alert(\"Please pay attention to this\");< /script>";
    }
    return $theText;
}
