Re: [RFC] Improve HTML escape

Hi all, It's dated but: https://wiki.php.net/rfc/escaper I see Yasuo edited it a wee bit in September on its 1 year anniversary to add ext/filter as an option. I had hoped Anthony would get around to it but c'est la vie. Without quotes you need to escape almost ALL non alphanumeric characters in an attribute value just to make sure you cover every known and unknown browser parsing oddity. It's just a bad practice full stop despite HTML5 allowing it. ENT_QUOTES should be the default for obvious reasons. It escapes quotes. htmlentities() doesn't anything more than htmlspecialchars() unless you count turning "Pádraic Ó'Brádaigh" into "Pádraic Ó'Brádaigh" as a positive benefit to the Irish language and the size of its webpages :P.
