In com.liferay.portal.kernel.util.HtmlUtil there is a method that has the following signature :

public static String escape(String html, int mode) {
return getHtml().escape(html, mode);
}

type mode argument should be one of

HtmlImpl.ESCAPE_MODE_ATTRIBUTE
HtmlImpl.ESCAPE_MODE_CSS
HtmlImpl.ESCAPE_MODE_JS
HtmlImpl.ESCAPE_MODE_TEXT
HtmlImpl.ESCAPE_MODE_URL

The problem is that because the constants are defined in an impl class they are not accessible to plugins

I would suggest moving them to the

com.liferay.portal.kernel.util.Html interface.
