> On demo site, navigate to 
> http://demo-trunk.ofbiz.apache.org/ecommerce/control/main. In Search Catalog 
> box on the left, enter a keyword that isn't in the product descriptions, such 
> as "notthere", and click on Find. The results page, 
> http://demo-trunk.ofbiz.apache.org/ecommerce/control/keywordsearch, displays 
> a list of "X" buttons, which would exclude some search results if there were 
> any. Beside each "X" button is a sequence of an ampersand, the letters "nbsp" 
> and a semi-colon. When I do a View Source in my web browser, the sequence is 
> the HTML ampersand entity, then nbsp, then a literal semicolon.
> Obviously something is HTML encoding what was originally intended to be a 
> non-breaking space. I can see the non-breaking space entity in 
> applications/product/webapp/catalog/find/keywordsearch.ftl . 
> Of course it is necessary to HTML encode any untrusted data coming from the 
> client side to guard against cross site scripting attacks. I don't see why it 
> is necessary to HTML encode the contents of a FreeMarker template, and I 
> don't understand why this non-breaking space is being encoded, and not every 
> occurrence of a greater-than or a less-than in the template.
