hmm, doesnt seem to work.
-
Ok, so I guess the embed tag will not work. Maybe there is a FAQ page that I haven't seen that says what tags you can and can't use?
-
mark may have filtered the embed tag or forgotten to list it in the allowed tags.
-
Is there a list anywhere of the tags you can and cannot use?
-
Yeah, the embed tag is disallowed right now. I was doing some research online about javascript hacks, and I *think* I read that there is a hack you can do in a certain version of explorer with the embed tag whereby you can run javascript on a page, so I disallowed it.
the allowed tags list(s) are customizable by admins. Right now they are:
ALLOWABLE_TAGS: blink, h1, h2, h3, h4, p, table, tr, td, th, br, b, strong, i, strike, u, a, div, span, iframe, input, ul, ol, li, img, marquee, code, pre, em
ALLOWABLE_PROPERTIES: direction, scrollamount, href, name, id, src, value, class, style, target, type, height, width, border, alt, title
DISALLOWED_VALUES: javascript: -
is there anyway you can incorporate an mp3 player like on yh, or some kind of media player then, so that embed tags arent necessary?
-
That sounds like perfect plugin territory to me, so I'll let that one rest for now. But it's a good idea.
-
ah very nice. i like how you're standing strong with keeping this fairly bare bones. the plugins will be a nice touch.
-
Thanks for the info Mark
-
what about embedding flash?
-
No can do 3stripe. To embed a .swf file you have to use the embed tag, which is not allowed. Mark has listed all the tags and properties that are allowed above. ^^^
-
Why not use BBCOde, and not embed tags ? for security...
-
First of all, I don't like bbcode tags - they're lame.
Second of all, if people want to use bbcode tags, they can write a string manipulator to do it and create an extension to handle it. In the release, you won't get any of the formatting options you see here except plain text. -
wait, so there wont be the ability to use HTML in posts then?
-
Not unless an administrator enables that extension (I have written extensions for html and markdown formatting that will be included but turned off by default)
-
ohhhhhhhh ok i gotcha. awesome.
-
but... it will be dangerous enabled that extensions ? or not...
-
the allowed tags list(s) are customizable by admins.
can someone tell me where? I don't mind digging in the source files but there's one or two I need to add. -
Hmmm I could have sworn that was part of an html embed/clean extension, but I guess not.
lech awaits the correct answer from mark. -
yeah I've been looking since a bit before I posted and can't find a list like that anywhere. ALLOWABLE_TAGS certainly doesn't exist.
-
hmm, I can't even find any of the individual tags. For instance I have tested and confirmed that the blink tag works with normal Html (YES!!!), but searching the source reveals 0 instance of blink anywhere. curiousssss.
-
That's deprecated. Sorry.
If you want to see how the text is formatted, open up the extensions for those formatters and have a look. There's not a lot of code and you can see pretty easily what is going on. -
Hmm, I went through the HtmlFormatting extension (not hard, there's almost nothing to it). I see a bit list of presumably forbidden tags/properties, but nothing else.
So maybe I should reframe my question, having possibly found a bug: why is it that in Html, <style> tags do nothing, but they work just fine in Raw Html? -
If I were to guess, I'd say it has something to do with the fact that the Html formatter (extensions/HtmlFormatter.php) performs a nl2br translation on any string passed through it. So, if you wrote:
<style>
.MyClass { color: red; }
</style>
The HtmlFormatter would replace it with this when rendered to the page:<style>
<br />.MyClass { color: red; }
<br /></style>
The RawHtmlFormatter (extensions/RawHtmlFormatter.php), on the other hand, doesn't perform ANY special formatting on strings passed through it. So your code wouldn't have any nl2br transformations done on it. -
you are correct sir!
I would really like to use the embed tag, but alas... -
Well, the quick-fix for that little problem is to just put your style all in one line without any carriage returns:
<style>.MyClass { color: red; }</style> -
you are correct sir!

If you wanted to be really sneaky, I think you could use an iframe thusly:
Then toss your embedded stuff in that page. -
-
huh never thought of the iframes.
-
this post was deleted by me, to avoid pissing off who ever's css menu i borrowed...
-
Ok that is getting a bit sneaky.... sorry.
-
hmmm you broke the thread?
-
jonezy, can you see a strange drop down menu floating on the right... sorry, just wanted to see if you could embed a new stylesheet using a div and html, seems to work on firefox here... though not very useful...
-
yes i can see it... it's the backpackit menu?
-
i'm gonna replace it with a menu of my own, seeing as that one is borrowed from another geezer's site....
