> Hello.
> StringEscapeUtils.escapeXml(str) escapes Unicode characters greater than 0x7f to their numerical \\u equivalent:
> String str = StringEscapeUtils.escapeXml("\uD84C\uDFB4");
> System.out.println(str);
> //&#55372;&#57268;
> But, the output should be &#144308;.
> According to W3C document "Using character escapes in markup and CSS," We must use the single, code point value for supplemental character.
> http://www.w3.org/International/questions/qa-escapes
> In fact, &#55372;&#57268; is not rendered correctly in some web browsers e.g., Firefox 5.0 and Chrome 12.0.
