#escape(string)

URL-encode a string.

url_encoded_string = CGI::escape("'Stop!' said Fred")
   # => "%27Stop%21%27saidFred"
[ GitHub ]

  
# File 'lib/cgi/util.rb', line 7

def escape(string)
  encoding = string.encoding
  string.b.gsub(/([^ a-zA-Z0-9_.-]+)/) do |m|
    '%' + m.unpack('H2' * m.bytesize).join('%').upcase
  end.tr(' ', '+').force_encoding(encoding)
end

#escape_element(string, *elements)

Alias for #escapeElement.

alias escape_html escapeHTML

#escapeElement(string, *elements) Also known as: #escape_element

Escape only the tags of certain HTML elements in string.

Takes an element or elements or array of elements. Each element is specified by the name of the element, without angle brackets. This matches both the start and the end tag of that element. The attribute list of the open tag will also be escaped (for instance, the double-quotes surrounding attribute values).

print CGI::escapeElement('<BR><A HREF="url"></A>', "A", "IMG")
  # "<BR>&lt;A HREF=&quot;url&quot;&gt;&lt;/A&gt"

print CGI::escapeElement('<BR><A HREF="url"></A>', ["A", "IMG"])
  # "<BR>&lt;A HREF=&quot;url&quot;&gt;&lt;/A&gt"
[ GitHub ]

  
# File 'lib/cgi/util.rb', line 111

def escapeElement(string, *elements)
  elements = elements[0] if elements[0].kind_of?(Array)
  unless elements.empty?
    string.gsub(/<\/?(?:#{elements.join("|")})(?!\w)(?:.|\n)*?>/i) do
      CGI::escapeHTML($&)
    end
  else
    string
  end
end

#escapeHTML(string) Also known as: #escape_html, #h

Escape special characters in HTML, namely &"<>

CGI::escapeHTML('Usage: foo "bar" <baz>')
   # => "Usage: foo &quot;bar&quot; &lt;baz&gt;"
[ GitHub ]

  
# File 'lib/cgi/util.rb', line 36

def escapeHTML(string)
  string.gsub(/['&\"<>]/, TABLE_FOR_ESCAPE_HTML__)
end

#h(string)

Alias for #escapeHTML.

[ GitHub ]

  
# File 'lib/cgi/util.rb', line 193

alias h escapeHTML

#pretty(string, shift = " ")

Prettify (indent) an HTML string.

string is the HTML string to indent. shift is the indentation unit to use; it defaults to two spaces.

print CGI::pretty("<HTML><BODY></BODY></HTML>")
  # <HTML>
  #   <BODY>
  #   </BODY>
  # </HTML>

print CGI::pretty("<HTML><BODY></BODY></HTML>", "\t")
  # <HTML>
  #         <BODY>
  #         </BODY>
  # </HTML>
[ GitHub ]

  
# File 'lib/cgi/util.rb', line 182

def pretty(string, shift = "  ")
  lines = string.gsub(/(?!\A)<.*?>/m, "\n\\0").gsub(/<.*?>(?!\n)/m, "\\0\n")
  end_pos = 0
  while end_pos = lines.index(/^<\/(\w+)/, end_pos)
    element = $1.dup
    start_pos = lines.rindex(/^\s*<#{element}/i, end_pos)
    lines[start_pos ... end_pos] = "__" + lines[start_pos ... end_pos].gsub(/\n(?!\z)/, "\n" + shift) + "__"
  end
  lines.gsub(/^((?:#{Regexp::quote(shift)})*)__(?=<\/?\w)/, '\1')
end

#rfc1123_date(time)

#unescape(string, encoding = @@accept_charset)

URL-decode a string with encoding(optional).
