ID: 9549 Updated by: jeroen Reported By: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Old-Status: Open Status: Bogus Bug Type: Documentation problem Operating system: PHP Version: 4.0.4pl1 Assigned To: Comments: This is not a PHP-bug, but a website bug.

Previous Comments: --------------------------------------------------------------------------- [2001-03-04 13:26:02] [EMAIL PROTECTED] In reference to your Add Note code on the annotatated PHP pages: The current set of note restrictions is actually too limiting and a little more effort need to be focused on what's allowable in a user submitted note. A) I had a very small snipped of PHP code I was trying to include, however preceeding spaces of the indentation were trimmed out, and thus the context was completely lost. My code sample suffered when <PRE>...</PRE> would have resolved it. B) A line in my code read as echo "$value<P>n"; however this caused the line to break. Allowing <P> or <BR> at the very end of a line would be appropiate to do the logical break. C) I tried entering in "$value<P>n" instead, only the ampersands were literally translated. Thus there was no way to express the actual literal that was needed. The solution seems to lie in more rigourous parsing -or- creating a special stripped down meta-markup. In all cases, a "I'm including a code snippet, please express the content literally, without translation, and preserving spaces" would solve the problem. A possible solution, instead of all HTML tags, allow just <CODE> ... </CODE>. The defined behavior is that all characters, including spaces and line brakes and angle brackets and ampersands are included as-is. An open code must be followed by a close code, and they can not be nested. If the note doesn't conform to that, do not allow it to be submitted. ...hope this helps! --------------------------------------------------------------------------- ATTENTION!
