It is often used when outputting RSS and XML, and is not exactly the same as HTMLEncode
principle:
| Character | Converted To |
| " | |
| ' | ' |
| & | & |
| < | < |
| > | > |
Code
<%
Function XMLEncode(byVal sText)
sText = Replace(sText, "&" , "&")
sText = Replace(sText, "<" , "<")
sText = Replace(sText, ">" , ">")
sText = Replace(sText, "'" , "'")
sText = Replace(sText, """", "")
XMLEncode = sText
End Function
%>
Another one:
<%
Public Function XmlEncode(ByVal strText As String) As String
Dim aryChars() As Variant
aryChars = Array(38, 60, 62, 34, 61, 39)
Dim i As Integer
For i = 0 To UBound(aryChars)
strText = Replace(strText, Chr(aryChars(i)), "&#" & aryChars(i) & ";")
Next
XmlEncode = strText
End Function
