Package html extends the standard Go html package with more comprehensive HTML escaping capabilities.
While the standard library's html.EscapeString only escapes a minimal set of characters ('<', '>', '&', ”', '"'), this package provides an EscapeString function that converts a much wider range of characters into their corresponding HTML named character references from the W3C specification. This includes support for two-codepoint composite characters and ensures all entities are semicolon-terminated.
For convenience, aliases for the standard library's html.EscapeString (EscapeStringStd) and html.UnescapeString are also provided.
A key invariant of this package is that for any string
s
,UnescapeString(EscapeString(s)) == s
