[ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MYFACES-1396?page=comments#action_12459975 ] Paul Pogonyshev commented on MYFACES-1396: ------------------------------------------
Note from the code, there's nothing like that (I actually grepped all source tree.) It may get it from the browser, I don't know. However, in this case it is very wrong: 1) at least MyFaces must handle "UTF8" just like "UTF-8"; 2) browser must not determine encoding of pages, since it is impossible to reencode pages robustly; in particular, inserting HTML entities into unsuspecting JavaScript (as in my case) will break things. > Too much escaping > ----------------- > > Key: MYFACES-1396 > URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MYFACES-1396 > Project: MyFaces Core > Issue Type: Bug > Components: General > Reporter: Tomas Fischer > Assigned To: Martin Marinschek > Priority: Blocker > Attachments: test.jsf > > > HTMLOutputText (which delegates to HTMLEncoder) escapes not only XML-invalid > charactres (like <, >, &), but also german umlauts. This is OK if generating > (X)HTML, but not OK if generating XML. However, according to the official > documentation to the outputText Tag the german umlauts should not be quoted: > If the "escape" attribute is not present, or it is present and its value is > "true" all angle brackets should be converted to the ampersand xx semicolon > syntax when rendering the value of the "value" attribute as the value of the > component. > There is an automatic XML detection, but this is broken, as only predefined > MIME-types are recognized (application/xhtml+xml, application/xml, text/xml). > This bug prevents using JSF for generating other content (e.g. SVG, MIME-type > image/svg+xml). -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
