Talk:Cross-site scripting

what?
okay escape everything, I get it. But what the f**k is escaping? Before we tell people to escape everything shouldn't we explain: This article as it currently is written does not help me at all, unfortunately to my knowledge, this article is the closest instructions to this security issue this site has.

 * 1) what escaping is
 * 2) an example of escaping?
 * I give up. I simply don't have the computer knowledge to understand this, and 99% of most people won't understand this article either. That would not matter, except this seems to be a serious issue. Igottheconch 01:40, 13 December 2011 (UTC)
 * Escaping is converting e.g. "  " to what you see here, with that I mean that the span tag is not used as a span tag, is is displayed as text because it is escaped using the nowiki tag. Another example: $variable = 'Pagina's'; must be escaped to $variable = 'Pagina\'s';. Some related info: Escape character. SPQRobin 03:04, 13 December 2011 (UTC)
