ElementTree.simpleEncode3kaya
Html-escape a string
Usage
String simpleEncode( String invalue, Bool leavequotes=false, UnicodeFormat uform=LiteralUTF8 )
Arguments
invalue The String to escape
leavequotes Whether to leave quotes unescaped. This is optional and defaults to false (i.e. quotes will be escaped)
uform If this is set to NumericReference (not the default) then non-ASCII characters will be replaced by numeric references.
Overview
HTML-escape a string, so that <, >, & and possibly " are converted to their entity equivalents (<, >, & and " respectively).
This is automatically done to all element text content and attribute values when converting ElementTree to String - this function is provided for use in other contexts.
