Re: New operator for htmlspecialchars

Hi! > Hello, > > I created a small ticket to propose a shorter syntax for htmlspecialchars: > > old: > <?= htmlspecialchars($str, ENT_QUOTES) ?> Don't think operator can make sense here, since you can have different options, etc. depending on context. But you could do this if the above is too long for you: function _h($str) { return htmlspecialchars($str, ENT_QUOTES); } ... <?= _h($str); ?> Not much longer than operator, much clearer and does not require language syntax to be linked to some specific options in some specific function. -- Stanislav Malyshev, Software Architect SugarCRM: http://www.sugarcrm.com/ (408)454-6900 ext. 227
