| Title | Special HTML chars in change descriptions not escaped by TeamTrack |
| Status | suspended |
| Priority | optional |
| Assigned user | Richard Brooksby |
| Organization | TeamShare |
| Description | Angle brackets and other special HTML characters aren't escaped as ">" etc. by TeamTrack in the fixes table. For example, a change description like "foo <bar> baz" looks like "foo baz" because the browser thinks "bar" is HTML markup. It needs to be output as "foo <bar> baz". Similarly, "foo & baz" should be output as "foo & baz". The P4DTI TeamTrack integration is now maintained and supported by TeamShare <http://www.teamshare.com/>. |
| Analysis | TeamShare need to escape greater-than, less-than, and ampersand characters when they output changelist descriptions and other text from Perforce. |
| How found | manual_test |
| Evidence | Discovered during testing of 1.0.4. |
