BTW about the CGI.pm example:
use CGI ();
$Text = "foo<b>bar";
$URL = "foo<b>bar.html";
print CGI::escapeHTML($Text), "<BR>";
Sorry for being off topic, but FYI from Bugtraq about Oct 5, 1999 titled
"Time to update those CGIs again":
"Seems that at least some Unix versions of Netscape treat characters 0x8b
and 0x9b (NOT the strings "0x8b" and "0x9b" but the characters with these
ascii values) just like < and > respectively..."
I never tested it, but others on Bugtraq did confirm the problem on unix
versions of Netscape.
