Details
Various pieces of the website code seem to no longer output
HTML as they once did.
Case in point: http://www.archlinux.org/developers/#AaronG Notice the literal "<del>" tags. Additionally, our RSS feeds seem to work the same way - the content of the feed itself is text/plain (or possibly escaped), so that feed readers are getting literal tags when we should be getting formatted HTML. The front page, however, outputs news items as HTML properly. It seems some of our output is a bit confused. I'm not sure if there are more cases for this |
This task depends upon
Actually, I've committed fixes for both these bugs. You caught me on a good day, I decided to do some Arch stuff today, isn't it cool?
If there are any other escaping bugs, they'll need to be reported on a case-by-case basis. Django's autoescaping is a Good Thing. Its just a royal pain to track down all the places its needed.
