Reference for issue details

Luc | Last updated: Mar 26, 2019 04:08PM UTC

The issue details, specifically IScanIssue.getIssueDetail(), allow "[a] limited set of HTML tags": <br> is interpreted as newline and <table>s are formatted correctly. But there is no CSS, <font color=green> does not work, <hr> does not work, <table border=1> does not show a border, etc. I have not been able to find any documentation on this. Is there documentation somewhere on which elements are allowed to be used? I'm also interested as to why the subset of allowed HTML is so small, when my extension can already do rm -rf / or format c: if it wants to, but that's a secondary question.

I modified the subject and added some text to my message after getting to the pre_create page where some search results are shown, but it seems this was not taken up by the website. I added the following and then used the bottom submit button: PS. When submitting this port, I got to the pre_create page where some search results are shown. Scrolling down, the body of the message is appended to the Subject, and the Topic pull-down menu is reset to a different one. It seems something is buggy when echoing the form data back to the user.

I don't think this is documented, but the allowed tags are: b, strong, i, p, br, a, ul, ol, li, table, tr, td, h4, wbr, pre, code, div The restriction was originally because issues were rendered using a very limited Java HTML widget. We're likely to leave the restriction in place though. By the way, extensions that do rm -rf will not be allowed in the BApp Store! The support center is provided by a third party and occasionally slightly buggy. We're going to be moving this in house in future.
