Question: When is it necessary to escape a forward slash? I'm dealing
with these two situations in my templates -- assume the next context
variable is a URL of some sort.
<input type="hidden" value="{{ next|urlencode }}" />
<a href="/my/redirect?next={{ next|urlencode }}>Link</a>
The urlencode filter doesn't escape the forward slash, but things seem
to work just fine on Firefox. However, I don't know whether that's
because Firefox is correctly adhering to the standard or whether it's
because modern browsers are magical. I'm building an app that caters
to older browsers, cell phones, etc., so I can't assume any degree of
browser intelligence and need to conform strictly to HTML 4.01.
This isn't strictly a Django question (more of a web-standards
question), but I figured I'd ask it here anyway. Thanks in advance!
