  • auto format expects valid html text, you can use < and > only in tags - use < and > instead
  • only allowed tags are kept, the rest is removed during the text cleaning by the KSES engine

closing now, if I understand the report properly, this is not a bug

Auto format is most usable. Are you agree?

>auto format expects valid html text, you can use < and > only in tags - use < and > instead
Please tell it to our teachers who DON'T KNOW what is html...

>only allowed tags are kept, the rest is removed during the text cleaning by the KSES engine
My opinion is - if tag isn't allowed then < and > should replace with < and > automatically.

If somebody does not understand HTML he/she should IMHO use html editor, that is why it is there, is it?

Usual in forums need only simple text without formating.

Please post in forum this sentence and see bug:

I think this is a bug. Yesterday I lost half of a lengthy posting only because the cited SQL statement contained a "<=" expression

At least the filter should only remove invalid characters instead of deleting everything after and including the "<".

Regards,
Frank
