func EscapeString

func EscapeString(s string) string

EscapeString escapes special characters like ", &, ' and ". UnescapeString(EscapeString(s)) == s always holds, but the converse isn't always true.

Example

Code:

const s = `"Fran & Freddie's Diner" <[email protected]>`
fmt.Println(html.EscapeString(s))

Output:

&#34;Fran &amp; Freddie&#39;s Diner&#34; &lt;[email protected]&gt;

func UnescapeString

func UnescapeString(s string) string

UnescapeString unescapes entities like "<" to become "

Example

Code:

const s = `&quot;Fran &amp; Freddie&#39;s Diner&quot; &lt;[email protected]&gt;`
fmt.Println(html.UnescapeString(s))

Output:

"Fran & Freddie's Diner" <[email protected]>
