/*
* XSS filter
*
* This was built from numerous sources
* (thanks all, sorry I didn't track to credit you)
*
* It was tested against *most* exploits here: http://ha.ckers.org/xss.html
* WARNING: Some weren't tested!!!
* Those include the Actionscript and SSI samples, or any newer than Jan 2011
*
*
* TO-DO: compare to SymphonyCMS filter:
* https://github.com/symphonycms/xssfilter/blob/master/extension.driver.php
* (Symphony's is probably faster than my hack)
