Description

I do not seem to be able to sort by question name. The question names are q.161, q.162, q.163 but when I sort by question name all the questions that contain an image float to the top.

If the question name is generated automatically from the question text then this can lead to question names that contain tags, for example image tags. This is not desirable, in particular it messes up the alphabetical ordering, as described by Tim above. The tags should be stripped.

Well put.

I think that this should be classified as a feature request rather than a propblem.

And I think it is a minor problem

Ah, I get it. By being reclassified as "Open" when they were "In Progress" the system sends out message saying that work on the bug has stopped. Hmm...

In general, I like the new bug tracker.

Since 1.8, question name has been a required form field that cannot contain HTML tags, so this no longer arises.

Dear Tim Hunt

When you say that the "form field cannot contain HMTML tags" are you refering to the GUI? I don't use a form to create questions.

The problem arose for me when I used GIFT. If one does not supply a question name, then the GIFT importer made (1.6.4) the question itself the question name. Does 1.8 remove the HTML tags?

In 1.6 if the question is a multimedia file, such as perhaps an audio file liked from an icon, e.g
<a=href="sound.mp3"><img src="chime.gif"></a>Listen to this dialogue about tourism in France and answer answer the question
then the same string will be used as the question name.

You are right, it should be doing a strip-tags before making up a default question name.
