Enum HtmlTextEscapingMode

java.lang.Object

java.lang.Enum<HtmlTextEscapingMode>

org.owasp.html.HtmlTextEscapingMode

All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable, Comparable<HtmlTextEscapingMode>

public enum HtmlTextEscapingMode
extends Enum<HtmlTextEscapingMode>

From section 8.1.2.6 of http://www.whatwg.org/specs/web-apps/current-work/

The text in CDATA and RCDATA elements must not contain any occurrences of the string "), or U+002F SOLIDUS (/), unless that string is part of an escaping text span.

See also http://www.whatwg.org/specs/web-apps/current-work/#cdata-rcdata-restrictions for the elements which fall in each category.

CDATA_SOMETIMES Like CDATA but only for certain browsers.
PCDATA Normally escaped character data that breaks around comments and tags.

RCDATA A span of text and character entity references where HTML special characters are interpreted literally, as in a TITLE tag.
VOID Cannot contain data.

Method Summary

Methods

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
static boolean	allowsEscapingTextSpan(String canonTagName) True iff the content following the given tag allows escaping text spans: <!--&hellip;--> that escape even things that might be an end tag for the corresponding open tag.
static HtmlTextEscapingMode	getModeForTag(String canonTagName) The mode used for content following a start tag with the given name.
static boolean	isTagFollowedByLiteralContent(String canonTagName) True if content immediately following the start tag must be treated as special CDATA so that <'s are not treated as starting tags, comments or directives.
static boolean	isVoidElement(String canonTagName) True iff the tag cannot contain any content -- will an HTML parser consider the element to have ended immediately after the start tag.
static HtmlTextEscapingMode	valueOf(String name) Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name.
static HtmlTextEscapingMode[]	values() Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared.

Method Detail

values

public static HtmlTextEscapingMode[] values()

Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared. This method may be used to iterate over the constants as follows:

for (HtmlTextEscapingMode c : HtmlTextEscapingMode.values())
    System.out.println(c);

Returns:

an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared

valueOf

public static HtmlTextEscapingMode valueOf(String name)

Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name. The string must match exactly an identifier used to declare an enum constant in this type. (Extraneous whitespace characters are not permitted.)

Parameters:

name - the name of the enum constant to be returned.

Returns:

the enum constant with the specified name

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if this enum type has no constant with the specified name

NullPointerException - if the argument is null

getModeForTag

public static HtmlTextEscapingMode getModeForTag(String canonTagName)

The mode used for content following a start tag with the given name.

allowsEscapingTextSpan

public static boolean allowsEscapingTextSpan(String canonTagName)

True iff the content following the given tag allows escaping text spans: <!--&hellip;--> that escape even things that might be an end tag for the corresponding open tag.

isTagFollowedByLiteralContent

public static boolean isTagFollowedByLiteralContent(String canonTagName)

True if content immediately following the start tag must be treated as special CDATA so that <'s are not treated as starting tags, comments or directives.

isVoidElement

public static boolean isVoidElement(String canonTagName)

True iff the tag cannot contain any content -- will an HTML parser consider the element to have ended immediately after the start tag.
