planet aggregation doing some editing?

2004-02-09 Thread Rodent of Unusual Size
so, how come the aggregator is stripping out 'style=""' attributes?
it turned '' into '', which
caused some confusion for someone trying to follow something in one
of my entries..

it strips all tags that might allow malicious users to insert problematic
code.

with color.
I remember somebody (norman walsh?) showing how you can change the 
meaning of a page by injecting style that could color words in a 
sentence white on a white background, then rearrange the words around 
and make it look like a totally different sentence.

pretty clever hack and for sure not that portable with current state of 
CSS selectors support, but in the future, well, that's something to be 
really concerned about in general.

but for this particular case, style is no danger since it's embedded 
and come from the same source.

planet is a generic codebase, not necessarily just used for trusted lists of
people.
