Small tool to escape HTML text for postings
Hi guys, when I post answers in the forum, I often have to copy / paste HTML sequences, which will have to be escaped, else they mess up the posting itself.
For example, you cannot use
<a href="">link</a>directly in a posting, you would have to escape it first to:
<a href="">link</a>.This is accomplished by replacing the opening bracket < with the html escape sequence <
You can find the tool here: http://apex.oracle.com/pls/otn/f?p=daust_demos:tools_escape_text
I use it quite often.
Enjoy,
~Dietmar.

Maybe this was created after this article was posted, but
HTF.escape_sc
supports this nicely.
FYI, anyone reading this.

Yes, you are right. This would work as well.
Escaping the opening bracket is the minial thing you need to do.
This would even work any text editor by replacing the "<" character.
