Escape Smarty Variables

[Raghubendra]

I have developed a module for Prestashop and when I validate it on the validator, I get security issues saying that - 

 

Invalid escape modifiers count, could be escaped like: "{$data|escape:'htmlall':'UTF-8'}"

 

When I use a integer, float or string variable, then I use html or htmlall to escape the vaiables, but what if I don't want to use any escape modifiers as the smarty variable may contain some html content and I don't want to escape the html in the variable.

 

I was using unescape or escape:'':'UTF-8' before but now they have also removed it. So, what should I use now.

 

Please help.

 hello

 

you can use the escape modifiers count in smarty template like as

 

(1) int value the "{$data|intval}"
(2) float value the "{$data|floatval}"

I am not talking about the int or float variables. I am talking about a variable that may contain some html content in it and if I use escape:'htmlall', then all the html is striped from the variable and I do not want that.
