In what cases would preparsecode NOT be run ahead of time?

Quote from: Arantor on March 10, 2011, 07:17:57 AM
That sort of presumes the content is pushed through preparsecode() when saving it though, otherwise unexpected bad things can happen.

Well, funnily enough, it isn't run here. It's run when a post is submitted, it's run when a PM is submitted. But it isn't run here, though I am not sure whether the large_text calls htmlspecialchars or not... I suspect not, and if not, it's not necessarily safe to run parse_bbc.

Matthew K. · March 10, 2011, 01:35:09 PM

So really, whenever htmlspecialchars is NOT run, prior to parse_bbc?

Arantor · March 10, 2011, 04:59:10 PM

-sigh- The whole point of preparsecode is to sanitise the code specifically for parsing. htmlspecialchars will sanitise basic XSS but not the more complex things. If there is any chance that content is to be BBC parsed, it should be pushed through preparsecode.

No problem.

djohns · March 26, 2012, 05:38:33 PM

I'm having the same problem as Aşkullah and Ventic. Everything fine in Google Chrome, site appearance hosed in IE8 (as in Askulla's image attachement).

Chupko, could you post what you did for Ventic? Or, Askulla, would you please mention how you solved this?

Hi:

your theme/index.template.php

Find

Code Select

	
	//Simple Announcement Mod by Chupko
if (!empty($modSettings['annoc_enable_each']))
{
 echo '
	<div class="tborder" ', $context['browser']['needs_size_fix'] && !$context['browser']['is_ie6'] ? 'style="width: 100%;"' : '', '>
 <div class="cat_bar">
 <h3 class="catbg">', (empty($modSettings['annoc_title'])) ? $txt['annoc_title_default'] : $modSettings['annoc_title'], '</div></div></h3>
	        <table border="0" width="100%" class="tborder">
            <td class="windowbg2" valign="middle" align="left">
			<p class="inline">
         ', (empty($modSettings['annoc_content'])) ? $txt['annoc_content_default'] : $modSettings['annoc_content'], '
         </p></td></table></p>';
}

Thank you very much. I will try that later today.

djohns · March 30, 2012, 05:37:37 PM

Bummer. It didn't make a bit of difference. A screenshot is attached.

It looks so nice in Chrome...

djohns · April 05, 2012, 06:05:28 PM

Does anyone have a recommendation for a similar mod that would work in IE8?

djohns · April 11, 2012, 09:53:06 PM

Suggestions?
