Re: Little improvement for SimpleHTMLEncoder

[Erik Hatcher]

Could you add this to a Bugzilla issue so it doesn't get lost in the  
never ending pile of e-mail that we all have?

Thanks,

Hi all!

The SimpleHTMLEncoder could be improved slightly: all characters  
with code >= 128 should be encoded as character entities. The  
reason is, that the encoder does not know the encoding that is used  
for the response. Therefore it is safer to encode all characters  
beyond ASCII as character entities. Can someone judge this proposal  
and commit it eventually?

       default:
         if (c < 128) {
           result.append(c);
         } else {
           result.append("&#").append((int)c).append(";");
         }
