过滤特殊输入字符（Java）

Arbitrary text placed in an HTML tag often needs to be altered, to ensure that the resulting HTML remains valid.

Problem characters can include:

• <
• >
• "
• '
• \
• &

These characters can be replaced with HTML character entities. For example, < can be replaced with &lt;.

Query strings (Blah=1&Name=Bob) often need to be escaped as well. If the query string contains special characters, it will need to be "URL encoded". (See the javadoc for the URLEncoder class for further information.) This will ensure the query string conforms with valid HTTP.

There's often a second issue, however, with regard to query strings. If a query string is placed in an HREF attribute, then even a URL encoded query string is often not of valid form. This is because URLEncoder produces valid HTTP, but it doesn't in general produce text which is a valid HTML attribute - the ampersand character needs to be replaced by the corresponding character entity &amp;.

Here is an example of a utility class which escapes special characters for HTML, XML, regular expressions, and so on. 

package hirondelle.web4j.util;

import java.io.UnsupportedEncodingException;

/**
 Convenience methods for escaping special characters related to HTML, XML, 
 and regular expressions.
 
 <P>To keep you safe by default, WEB4J goes to some effort to escape 
 characters in your data when appropriate, such that you <em>usually</em>
 don't need to think too much about escaping special characters. Thus, you
  shouldn't need to <em>directly</em> use the services of this class very often. 
 
 <P><span class='highlight'>For Model Objects containing free form user input, 
 it is highly recommended that you use {@link SafeText}, not <tt>String</tt></span>.
 Free form user input is open to malicious use, such as
 <a href='http://www.owasp.org/index.php/Cross_Site_Scripting'>Cross Site Scripting</a>
 attacks. 
 Using <tt>SafeText</tt> will protect you from such attacks, by always escaping 
 special characters automatically in its <tt>toString()</tt> method.   
 
 <P>The following WEB4J classes will automatically escape special characters 
 for you, when needed : 
 <ul>
 <li>the {@link SafeText} class, used as a building block class for your 
 application's Model Objects, for modeling all free form user input
 <li>the {@link Populate} tag used with forms
 <li>the {@link Report} class used for creating quick reports
 <li>the {@link Text}, {@link TextFlow}, and {@link Tooltips} custom tags used 
 for translation
 </ul>

    The idea is to neutralize control characters commonly used by scripts, such that
    they will not be executed by the browser. This is done by replacing the control
    characters with their escaped equivalents.  
    See {@link hirondelle.web4j.security.SafeText} as well.
