âšī¸ Common safe HTML tags & attributes as given in
\TYPO3\HtmlSanitizer\Builder\CommonBuilder
still might be adjusted, extended or rearranged to more specific builders.
This typo3/html-sanitizer
package aims to be a standalone component that can be used by any PHP-based
project or library. Albeit it is released within the TYPO3 namespace, it is agnostic to specifics of
TYPO3 CMS.
\TYPO3\HtmlSanitizer\Behavior
contains declarative settings for a particular process for sanitizing HTML.\TYPO3\HtmlSanitizer\Visitor\VisitorInterface
(multiple different visitors can exist at the same time) are actually doing the work based on the declaredBehavior
. Visitors can modify nodes or mark them for deletion.\TYPO3\HtmlSanitizer\Sanitizer
can be considered as the working instance, invoking visitors, parsing and serializing HTML. In general this instance does not contain much logic on how to handle particular nodes, attributes or values\TYPO3\HtmlSanitizer\Builder\BuilderInterface
can be used to create multiple different builder instances - in terms of "presets" - which combine declaring a particularBehavior
, initialization ofVisitorInterface
instances, and finally returning a ready-to-useSanitizer
instance

echo $sanitizer->sanitize($html);
will result in the following sanitized output

Behavior::ENCODE_INVALID_TAG
keeps invalid tags, but "disarms" them (see<span>
in example)Behavior::ENCODE_INVALID_ATTR
keeps invalid attributes, but "disarms" the whole(!) tagBehavior::REMOVE_UNEXPECTED_CHILDREN
removes children forTag
entities that were created without explicitly usingTag::ALLOW_CHILDREN
, but actually contained child nodesBehavior::ALLOW_CUSTOM_ELEMENTS
allow using custom elements (having a hyphen-
) - however, it is suggested to explicitly name all known and allowed tags and avoid using this flag
