Remarks
The IHTMLWindow6::toStaticHTML method can be used to remove event attributes and script from user input before it is displayed as HTML. Malicious HTML can be passed on a URL, in form parameters, or across domains by XDomainRequest or IHTMLWindow6::postMessage. Always validate user input before adding it as an HTML fragment to a webpage or storing it in a database.
Note This method does not filter the attributes of the base element. This can cause potentially unwanted redirect requests for link and anchor elements injected into a webpage. For best results, only use IHTMLWindow6::toStaticHTML to modify elements in the body of a webpage.
