Module css 

CSS contextual output encoders.

provides two encoding contexts:

• for_css_string — safe for CSS string values (inside quotes)
• for_css_url — safe for CSS url() values

both use CSS hex escape syntax (\XX) with a trailing space appended when the next character could be misinterpreted as part of the hex value.

security notes

• CSS string values must be quoted. these encoders produce output safe inside "..." or '...' delimiters.
• these encoders do not validate CSS property names, selectors, or expressions. encoding cannot make arbitrary CSS safe — validate the structure separately.
• for url() values, the URL itself must be validated (scheme whitelist, etc.) before encoding. encoding only prevents syntax breakout.
