Rather than creating some other util global, just extend underscore.js with any additional methods you want.

// If you don't use underscore.js, use it (http://documentcloud.github.com/underscore/) | |
// Then, use underscore's mixin method to extend it with all your other utility methods | |
// like so: | |
_.mixin({ | |
escapeHtml: function () { | |
return this.replace(/&/g,'&') | |
.replace(/>/g,'>') | |
.replace(/</g,'<') | |
.replace(/"/g,'"') | |
.replace(/'/g,'''); | |
}, | |
otherFunc: function () { | |
// etc, etc. | |
} | |
}); | |
// simple. but. handy. |
perfect! just what I was looking for. Thanks!

Yap, @krunkasaurus (lol, I love the name) is right, Underscore already has
_.escape
and the edge version has_.unescape
too.You can also use Lo-Dash, a drop-in replacement for Underscore delivering performance, bug fixes, and additional features to make a custom build and embed it directly in your project like (BonsaiJS)[http://bonsaijs.org/].
