Issue #2292 Update (Comment) "entity refs inside zope" Status Pending, Zope/bug medium To followup, visit: http://www.zope.org/Collectors/Zope/2292 ============================================================== = Comment - Entry #5 by fgsch on Mar 19, 2007 8:33 am the problem is not support sloppy entitites, the problem is zope is adding a semicolon when it shouldn't. that's all. this should be fixed imho. if you want to barf about the unexistent entity, fine, but shouldn't add a semicolon. ________________________________________ = Comment - Entry #4 by ajung on Mar 19, 2007 8:29 am There is no need in Zope to support sloppy entities. +1 to reject this issue. ________________________________________ = Comment - Entry #3 by fgsch on Mar 19, 2007 8:24 am This is true but all the browsers seem to believe &something is valid (or at least do not try to add a semicolon at the end), so even if this is not the case, following the common behaviour would be better. ________________________________________ = Comment - Entry #2 by tseaver on Mar 19, 2007 8:20 am ZPT generally requires well-formedness in the templates, although the output may not be well-formed in cases where the 'structure' modifier is used. Your example is not Would you prefer that ZPT just mark that as an error? For instance, here is what 'tidy' says about a document including your example:: $ cat test.html <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd"> <html> <title>Test Zope Collector #2292</title> <body> <h1>Test Zope Collector #2292</h1> <div>&messageId</div> </body> </html> $ tidy -e test.html line 6 column 6 - Warning: unescaped & or unknown entity "&messageId" ... ________________________________________ = Request - Entry #1 by fgsch on Mar 19, 2007 7:44 am This is really a bug in python, but I've been suggested to fill it here so Zope can workaround it. The text '<div>&messageId</div>' is wrongly rendered as '<div>&messageId;=</div>' in a Page Template as the HTMLParser module in python wrong matches '&something' as an entity reference. I'll open a separate bug with Python, but it'd be nice if Zope can cope with this issue until is fixed. Thanks. ==============================================================
