[Mapserver-dev] Re: [Mapserver-users] HTML characters in template

[Steve Lime]

Yup, but I'm not sure it fixes your problem. The _esc replacement is
basically there so you could escape data for inclusion in other URLs.
Special characters are replaced with their hexidecimal ascii codes so a
space becomes %20 and so on. I think what you want is html escapes and
we'd need to add that, probably as another substitution qualifier:

  [variable_html] or something like that

Thoughts?

Ah yes, I see it now in the documentation. That's since version 3.6,
right?
