+# Escape
+
+The following helpers can **escape output in view scripts and defend from XSS
+and related vulnerabilities**. To escape different contexts of a HTML document,
+zend-view provides the following helpers:
+
+* [`EscapeCss`](#escapecss)
+* [`EscapeHtml`](#escapehtml)
+* [`EscapeHtmlAttr`](#escapehtmlattr)
+* [`EscapeJs`](#escapejs)
+* [`EscapeUrl`](#escapeurl)
+
+More informations to the operation and the background of security can be found
+in the
+[documentation of zend-escaper](https://docs.zendframework.com/zend-escaper/configuration/).
+
+> ### Installation Requirements
+>
+> The escape helpers depends on the zend-escaper component, so be sure to have
+> it installed before getting started:
+>
+> ```bash
+> $ composer require zendframework/zend-escaper
+> ```
+
+## EscapeCss
+
+```php
+$css = <<<CSS
+body {
+    background-image: url('http://example.com/foo.jpg?</style><script>alert(1)</script>');
+}
+CSS;
+
+echo $this->escapeCss($css);
+```
+
+Output:
+
+```css
+body\20 \7B \D \A \20 \20 \20 \20 background\2D image\3A \20 url\28 \27 http\3A \2F \2F example\2E com\2F foo\2E jpg\3F \3C \2F style\3E \3C script\3E alert\28 1\29 \3C \2F script\3E \27 \29 \3B \D \A \7D 
+```
+
+## EscapeHtml
+
+```php
+$html = "<script>alert('zend-framework')</script>";
+
+echo $this->escapeHtml($html);
+```
+
+Output:
+
+```html
+&lt;script&gt;alert(&#039;zend-framework&#039;)&lt;/script&gt;
+```
+
+## EscapeHtmlAttr
+
+```php+html
+<?php $html = 'faketitle onmouseover=alert(/zend-framework/);'; ?>
+
+<a title=<?= $this->escapeHtmlAttr($html) ?>>click</a>
+```
+
+Output:
+
+```html
+<a title=faketitle&#x20;onmouseover&#x3D;alert&#x28;&#x2F;zend-framework&#x2F;&#x29;&#x3B;>click</a>
+```
+
+## EscapeJs
+
+```php
+$js = "window.location = 'https://framework.zend.com/?cookie=' + document.cookie";
+
+echo $this->escapeJs($js);
+```
+
+Output:
+
+```js
+window.location\x20\x3D\x20\x27https\x3A\x2F\x2Fframework.zend.com\x2F\x3Fcookie\x3D\x27\x20\x2B\x20document.cookie
+```
+
+## EscapeUrl
+
+```php
+<?php
+$url = <<<JS
+" onmouseover="alert('zf2')
+JS;
+?>
+
+<a href="http://example.com/?name=<?= $this->escapeUrl($url) ?>">click</a>
+```
+
+Output:
+
+```html
+<a href="http://example.com/?name=%22%20onmouseover%3D%22alert%28%27zf2%27%29">click</a>
+```
+
+## Using Encoding
+
+```php
+$this->escapeHtml()->setEncoding('iso-8859-15');
+```
+
+All allowed encodings can be found in the
+[documentation of zend-escaper](https://docs.zendframework.com/zend-escaper/configuration/).
+
+### Get Current Value
+
+To get the current value of this option, use the `getEncoding()` method.
+
+```php
+$this->escapeHtml()->setEncoding('iso-8859-15');
+
+echo $this->escapeHtml()->getEncoding(); // iso-8859-15
+```
+
+### Default Value
+
+The default value for all escape helpers is `utf-8`.
+
+## Using Recursion
+
+All escape helpers can use recursion for the given values during the escape
+operation. This allows the escaping of the datatypes `array` and `object`. 
+
+### Escape an Array
+
+To escape an `array`, the second parameter `$recurse` must be use the constant
+`RECURSE_ARRAY` of an escape helper: 
+
+```php
+$html = [
+    'headline' => '<h1>Foo</h1>',
+    'content'  => [
+        'paragraph' => '<p>Bar</p>',
+    ],
+];
+
+var_dump($this->escapeHtml($html, Zend\View\Helper\EscapeHtml::RECURSE_ARRAY));
+```
+
+Output:
+
+```php
+array(2) {
+  'headline' =>
+  string(24) "&lt;h1&gt;Foo&lt;/h1&gt;"
+  'content' =>
+  array(1) {
+    'paragraph' =>
+    string(22) "&lt;p&gt;Bar&lt;/p&gt;"
+  }
+}
+```
+
+### Escape an Object
+
+An escape helper can use the `__toString()` method of an object. No additional
+parameter is needed:
+
+```php
+$object = new class {
+    public function __toString() : string
+    {
+        return '<h1>Foo</h1>';
+    }
+};
+
+echo $this->escapeHtml($object); // "&lt;h1&gt;Foo&lt;/h1&gt;"
+```
+
+An escape helper can also use the `toArray()` method of an object. The second
+parameter `$recurse` must be use the constant `RECURSE_OBJECT` of an escape
+helper: 
+
+```php
+$object = new class {
+    public function toArray() : array
+    {
+        return ['headline' => '<h1>Foo</h1>'];
+    }
+};
+
+var_dump($this->escapeHtml($object, Zend\View\Helper\EscapeHtml::RECURSE_OBJECT));
+```
+
+Output:
+
+```php
+array(1) {
+  'headline' =>
+  string(3) "&lt;h1&gt;Foo&lt;/h1&gt;"
+}
+```
+
+If the object does not contains the methods `__toString()` or `toArray()` then
+the object is casted to an `array`:
+
+```php
+$object = new class {
+    public $headline = '<h1>Foo</h1>';
+};
+
+var_dump($this->escapeHtml($object, Zend\View\Helper\EscapeHtml::RECURSE_OBJECT));
+```
+
+Output:
+
+```php
+array(1) {
+  'headline' =>
+  string(3) "&lt;h1&gt;Foo&lt;/h1&gt;"
+}
+```
+
+## Using Custom Escaper
+
+Create an own instance of `Zend\Escaper\Escaper` and set to any of the escape
+helpers:
+
+```php
+$escaper = new Zend\Escaper\Escaper('utf-8');
+
+$this->escapeHtml()->setEscaper($escaper);
+```
+
+### Get Current Value
+
+To get the current value, use the `getEscaper()` method.
+
+```php
+<?php
+$escaper = new Zend\Escaper\Escaper('utf-8');
+$this->escapeHtml()->setEscaper($escaper);
+
+var_dump($this->escapeHtml()->getEscaper()); // instance of Zend\Escaper\Escaper
+```
+
+### Default Value
+
+The default value is an instance of `Zend\Escaper\Escaper`, created by the
+helper.
