>Description:
The problem arises when someone puts a tag (<tag>) into the Synopsis of
a bug (which is something I need to do). Initially, it
would just not display the stuff in the <>s, but when I put
<script> in there, the browser wouldn't display any of the
table (becasue there was no </script>.
>How-To-Repeat:
Sumbit a bug (like this one) with a <tag> in it.
>Fix:
the fix is to change the line (at about line 1784:
print "<td nowrap>$fieldcontents";
to:
print "<td nowrap>", escapeHTML($fieldcontents);
One interesting thing I had to do was add a charset("ISO-8859-1") call
to my gnatsweb-site.pl (otherwise the source turns into a bunch of HTML
entities). I'm not sure why this is so. It doesn't appear that the gnats
site has that problem. Perhaps it's Apache.
