Htmlspecialchars PHP

The htmlspecialchars() function converts special characters to HTML entities

string htmlspecialchars ( string $string <, int $flags = ENT_COMPAT <, string $charset <, bool $double_encode = true >>> )

The translations performed are:

* "&" (ampersand) becomes "&amp;"
* """ (double quote) becomes "&quot;" when ENT_NOQUOTES is not set.
* """ (single quote) becomes "&#039;" only when ENT_QUOTES is set.
* "<" (less than) becomes "&lt;"
* ">" (greater than) becomes "&gt;"


Example of htmlspecialchars() function:

<?php
$new = htmlspecialchars("<a href="test">Test</a>", ENT_QUOTES);
echo $new;
?>


output: &lt;a href=&#039;test&#039;&gt;Test&lt;/a&gt;


Other example:

<html>
<body>
<?php
$str = "Jane & "Tarzan"";
echo htmlspecialchars($str, ENT_COMPAT);
echo "<br />";
echo htmlspecialchars($str, ENT_QUOTES);
echo "<br />";
echo htmlspecialchars($str, ENT_NOQUOTES);
?>
</body>
</html>


The browser output of the code above will be:
Jane & "Tarzan"
Jane & "Tarzan"
Jane & "Tarzan"

If you select "View source" in the browser window, you will see the following HTML:
<html>
<body>
Jane &amp; "Tarzan"<br />
Jane &amp; &#039;Tarzan&#039;<br />
Jane &amp; "Tarzan"
</body>
</html>
