Return Value
Encoded string for use in CSS element values.Remarks
This method encodes all characters except those that are in the safe list.
The following table lists the default safe characters.
The CSS character escape sequence consists of a backslash character (\) followed by up to six hexadecimal digits that represent a character code from the ISO 10646 standard.
(The ISO 10646 standard is effectively equivalent to Unicode.) Any character other than a hexadecimal digit terminates the escape sequence. If a character that follows the
escape sequence is also a valid hexadecimal digit, it must either include six digits in the escape sequence or use a whitespace character to terminate the escape sequence.
For example, \000020 denotes a space.
