Place holders are replaced by attributes that might be extra-escaped but in any case the template engine should infer anything as to the content being replaced. The expected outcome after substitution should be: <div class=some-escaped-text> </div> On Wed, Mar 26, 2014 at 5:44 PM, Daniel Friesen <[email protected]>wrote: > On 2014-03-26, 9:32 AM, Nuria Ruiz wrote: > >> The issue is that they apply the same escaping, regardless of the > >> html context.
