Bob Fields commented on LANG-437:
---------------------------------

This change broke our application www.andromda.org. We use StringEscapeUtils to 
fix documentation contained in Strings for inclusion in Java files and then 
compile those java files, resulting in the error:

Invalid escape sequence (valid ones are  \b  \t  \n  \f  \r  \"  \'  \\ )

Note that \/ is not a valid String escape sequence.

Should use escapeJavaScript if String is meant to be used in html or XML 
environment rather than in a Java environment.

See also https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LANG-421.

> Complaints that the IE fix for StringEscapeUtils.escapeJavaScript is causing 
> problems elsewhere. Rollback?
