Template Filter - escape
Example
Display a text containing HTML, with and without escape:
{% autoescape off %}
<h1>{{ heading|escape }}</h1>
<h1>{{ heading }}</h1>
{% endautoescape %}Definition and Usage
The escape filter escapes HTML characters
from the value.
Note:
Escaping HTML characters is a default setting in Django, so we have to turn
off autoescape in the example to be able to see
the difference.
These characters are escaped:
<is converted to<>is converted to>'is converted to'"is converted to"&is converted to&
Syntax
Template filters are defined by using a pipe |
character followed by the name of the filter.
{{ value|escape }}
