Escape both single quote and double quote in Smarty

Oddly it seems that when using {$foo|escape:'quotes'} Smarty will only escape single quotes instead of both single and double quotes. This is problematic with HTML attributes that need the " changed to &quote;.

Double quotes can be escaped using {$foo|escape:'html'}, but it doesn't work for single quote.

We can use this way to escape both single and double quotes: {$foo|escape:'quotes'|replace:'"':'"'}

Also, we can write a custom modifier:

 

<?php /** * Smarty plugin * @package Smarty * @subpackage plugins */ /** * Smarty escape_quotes modifier plugin. * * Type: modifier<br /> * Name: escape_quotes<br /> * Purpose: Escape both double and single quotes. * @param string $string * @version $Revision: 1.1.1 $ * @return string */ function smarty_modifier_escape_quotes($string) { return strtr($string, array('"' => '"', '/'' => '///'')); } ?>
