$myts->htmlSpecialChars() with htmlspecialchars()

[mambax7]

Should we replace all simple calls to $myts->htmlSpecialChars(), e.g.

$myts->htmlSpecialChars($name)

where there are no extra parameters in the call, with something like:

htmlspecialchars($name, ENT_QUOTES | ENT_HTML5);

It saves time, as $myts->htmlSpecialChars() ends up with sending the text to htmlspecialchars() anyway.

I agree.

Given where we are with the 2.5.11 release and there is no functional change by implementing this now it has been pushed to the XOOPS v2.5.12 milestone

Since all $myts->htmlSpecialChars() does (or has ever done) is return htmlspecialchars() we should consider deprecating $myts->htmlSpecialChars() in XOOPS 2.5.12
