Hi All,
I'm working on a new application that will need a blog.  The basics for
creating a blog are well documented all over the web and are pretty easy and
straightforward.  However, most of what you find is very simplistic - blog
entries and comments just consisting of simple text, for example.  In my
application, I will need to allow blog posts to have at least some HTML
markup (e.g., links, unordered lists, and in particular images).  The same
goes for blog comments.  Does anyone have any suggestions on how to go about
doing this?  RedCloth would appear to be one alternative but my users aren't
going to know Textile and there's no way I can expect them to learn it.  I
need to balance my requirements with a healthy concern for cross site
scripting (XSS) and I'm unsure how to proceed.  I'm very curious how sites
like http://www.rubyinside.com accomplish this.  I would greatly appreciate
any advice!

Thanks, Ken
