Kaya 0.5.2 reference for ElementTree::simpleEncode

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.

Usage

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.
