Re: [PATCH 2/n] gitweb: Use '&iquot;' instead of '?' in esc_path

Jakub Narebski [off-list ref] writes:

# quote unsafe characters and escape filename to HTML
sub esc_path {
	my $str = shift;
	$str = esc_html($str);
	$str =~ s!([[:cntrl:]])!sprintf('<span class="cntrl">&#%04d;</span>', 9216+ord($1))!eg;
	return $str;
}

with perhaps the following CSS

span.cntrl {
	border: dashed #aaaaaa;
	border-width: 1px;
	padding: 0px 2px 0px 2px;
	margin:  0px 2px 0px 2px;
}

What do you think of it?

Probably "# quote unsafe characters" is not what it does yet (it
just quotes controls currently and nothing else), but we have to
start somewhere and I think this is a good start.
