filter and sanitize?

Hi,

Not sure if it's just me that can't find any course covering this, but are there a javascript course that covers how to filter input and escape output?

Not a course, but there are readily-available packages for escaping code. A link to a popular one intended for escaping HTML was just posted today in a related question over in the Security topic area. A quick search will turn up similar packages for other languages if you need them.
