Using escape and raw in twig?

Question

I have an article that has smart quotes in it, so I need to escape the article content. However, if I use

 article.body| e

to escape the article, the html does not show up as formatted. And if I use

 article.body| raw

the article is displayed correctly as html but the smart quotes are not escaped in the content.

Does anyone know how to escape content while correctly displaying the html?

You can specify a strategy for the escape filter.

'html' won't work for you here because it internally uses PHP's htmlspecialchars

'html' is the default strategy when using {{ var|e }}

You will need to create a custom escaping strategy for your use case.

... but if it's only the quotes which need to be replaced you could do a simple preg_replace on PrePersist and PreUpdate using Doctrine's Lifecyle Events.

It still only shows up as unformatted html with all the tags and such as output :/
oh sorry guess i misread the question. you need to create a custom escaping strategy for your use case.

to show the special characters we can use like this {{ '<'|e }} it will print only angle angle bracket '<'
