The HtmlAttributeEncode method encodes characters appropriate for insertion into an HTML attribute value.
The string result from the HtmlAttributeEncode method should be used only for double-quoted attributes.
Security issues might arise when using the HtmlAttributeEncode method with single-quoted attributes.
Parameters:
- arg1: a node reference or string literal.
Notice: when a node reference is used, the inner text of the node will be taken as string to html encode.
