Escape HTML content without escaping tags

How can I escape HTML content without escaping the HTML tags?

Thanks for the info. The select statement worked for me when I ran it with the inputs below but when I tried to put the statement in my code it didn't work. Can you have a look and see what I may have done wrong?
Thanks
Karen
My code looks like this:
FUNCTION escape_varchar(p_text_in IN VARCHAR2, p_encode IN NUMBER)
    RETURN VARCHAR2
IS
    p_text_out VARCHAR2(32767);
BEGIN
    p_text_out := DBMS_XMLGEN.CONVERT(utl_i18n.escape_reference(unistr(REPLACE(p_text_in,'\','\\')),'US7ASCII'),p_encode);
    RETURN p_text_out;
END escape_varchar;
p_text_in =
<html>
<head>
</head>
<body>

Html Content without scrolling

I need to show html content like a textblock in Store App 8.1. I have created a webview and navigate this webview to the html string
coming dynamically. After this I call a script to disable the scrolling in WebView but I am not able to set the height of WebView according to the amount of content coming dynamically. I have created another webview to get the height of content but it returns
wrong height and sometimes text is not shown. So whole view is ruined.I need to show html content without scrolling. I tried RichtextBlock but it does not parse all html tags properly. Can somebody provide a solution to it?

What's the scenario for this issue?

HTML content layout substitution tags

Hi,
We have a multi-language Portal 10.1.4 and use HTML content layout substitution tags in a HTML Template. The problem is that we would like to use the ITEM.PUBLISHDATE.LABEL and the ITEM.UPDATESDATE.LABEL tags but the text rendered isn't exactly what we would like to get (f.e. in English it's 'Publish Date' and in French it's 'Date de mise à jour').
I looked in the documentation and found that the text rendered correspond to the display name of the attribut (not 100% sure of this). But, those attributs are in the Shared Objects and we can't modify them.
1. We would like to modify the display name of those attributs (both in French and in English) or find any other way to make it.
2. We also want to apply an other format to the date retreived with the ITEM.PUBLISHDATE.VALUE and the ITEM.UPDATEDDATE.VALUE tags.
Can someone help us with those issues ?
David

Yes, we added languages in the Translation tab of the shared object pagegroup properties.

Escaping HTML in a Custom Tag

Hello, all. I am sadly failing to find a library function to escape HTML in Java. I'm writing a tag that used to use JSTL as a custom tag and don't know exactly where to find the functionality the JSTL is using. Consider the old JSP:
<c:forEach items="${versions}" var="version">
     <tr>
         <td><c:out value="${version.version}"/></td>
         <td><c:out value="${version.releaseDate}"/></td>
    </tr>
</c:forEach>and the new custom tag class:
public class VersionTableTag implements Tag
    private PageContext context;
    private Tag parent;
    public int doEndTag() throws JspException
        return EVAL_PAGE;
    public int doStartTag() throws JspException
        JspWriter out = context.getOut();
        List versions;
        try
            versions = (List)(context.getVariableResolver().resolveVariable("versions"));
        } catch (ELException e)
            versions = new ArrayList();
        try
            out.println("<table>");
            out.println("<tr>");
            out.println("<th>Version</th>");
            out.println("<th>Release Date</th>");
            out.println("</tr>");
            for (Object o : versions)
                VersionVO version = (VersionVO)o;
                out.println("<tr>");
                out.println("<td>");
                out.println(version.getVersion()); // NOTE: not properly escaped
                out.println("</td><td>");
                out.println(version.getReleaseDate().toString()); // NOTE: not properly escaped
                out.println("</td>");
                out.println("</tr>");
            out.println("</table>");
        } catch (IOException e)
            throw new JspException(e);
        return SKIP_BODY;
}My questions are as follows:
*1.* Is it possible to define a tag using a JSP document rather than a Java class? All I'm really after is something similar to an include but I want to be able to provide attributes to it in the long run.
*2.* Is there some library function I can use to escape the HTML in the VO above?

1. Is it possible to define a tag using a JSP document rather than a Java class? All I'm really after is something similar to an include but I want to be able to provide attributes to it in the long run.Yes. It was introduced with JSP2.0: tag files.
Just like a JSP lets you write a servlet easily, a tag file lets your write a Custom tag class easily.
http://java.sun.com/javaee/5/docs/tutorial/doc/bnama.html
2. Is there some library function I can use to escape the HTML in the VO above?
There is one provided in the jakarta commons "lang" library.
http://commons.apache.org/lang/
They provide a class "StringEscapeUtils" which will do most of the common escaping that you require.
How hard is it to write something that replaces & < and > though?

Printing HTML content without the printout dialog

Hi all,
I'm using a "CL_ISHMED_PMD_HTMLVIEWER" object to display an HTML file inside a PMD.
Now, when I'm trying to print it, the OLE printout dialog pops up and ask me which printer I want to use.
I want to hardcode the destination device and suppress this dialog.
I don't mind setting an outside button in my PMD and print the file in an other way (directly printing the file maybe), but it MUST be without the dialog.
Does anyone have an idea?
Cheers,
Ido

Hi,
Goto SU01 transaction.
Enter your user id & click display
Goto PARAMETERS tab
enter PRI & value as LOCL or LP01 depending on the output device which you have configured for SAP.( You can check the same in SPAD transaction => Output device)
SAVE
You wont get the popup.

Setting html content with setContent() does never show images

I've an application set sets dynamically generated html-content in a webview node by using the webengine.setContent() method. This generated html content uses image-tags.
Here's the problem: the image is not displayed. I tried all variations (absolute url like "http://localhost/c:/test.png" or "file://c:/test.png", relative urls like "test.png" with png in jar-file).
Anyone out there who has a workaround for me? I appreciate any comment.

one non-working apple <img src="apple.png"> You loaded the page content with loadcontent, then inside the page content provided a relative url. This is likely an error.
The question is, what is this url relative to?
The answer is either likely undefined as no protocol was used to load the page content and so it can't be determined how to load the relative url resource.
and two non-working peaches <img src="http://localhost/c:/peaches.png">
You attempted to load content using the http protocol server on the localhost, but you have no such server on the host, so this cannot work.
and a working remote image url <img src="http://docs.oracle.com/javafx/javafx/images/javafx-documentation.png">
This works because you fully specified how to load the content by providing the protocol and valid resource reference.
OK, so the question remains how do you images from the local drive?
There are three options for this in the following code.
package org.jewelsea.examples.webviewlocal;
import javafx.application.Application;
import javafx.beans.value.*;
import javafx.scene.Scene;
import javafx.scene.layout.FlowPane;
import javafx.scene.web.WebView;
import javafx.stage.Stage;
/** Example of a webview loading resources from the file system. */
public class WebViewLocal extends Application {
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
//    URL.setURLStreamHandlerFactory(new HandlerFactory());
    launch(args);
public void start(final Stage stage) throws Exception {
    final FlowPane layout = new FlowPane();
    WebView webView = new WebView();
    webView.getEngine().load("file:///C:\\dev\\gettingstarted\\timeforgotten.html");
//    webView.getEngine().load("jar:file:///C:\\dev\\javafx\\JavaFXidea\\out\\artifacts\\JavaFXidea_jar\\JavaFXidea.jar!/org/jewelsea/examples/webviewlocal/timeforgotten.html");
//    webView.getEngine().load("resource:///org/jewelsea/examples/webviewlocal/timeforgotten.html");
    webView.getEngine().getLoadWorker().exceptionProperty().addListener(new ChangeListener<Throwable>() {
      @Override public void changed(ObservableValue<? extends Throwable> observableValue, Throwable oldThrowable, Throwable newThrowable) {
        System.out.println("Load exception: " + newThrowable);
    // layout the scene.
    layout.getChildren().addAll(webView);
    Scene scene = new Scene(layout, 1000, 600);
    webView.prefWidthProperty().bind(scene.widthProperty());
    webView.prefHeightProperty().bind(scene.heightProperty());
    stage.setScene(scene);
    stage.show();
}which loads the following html file:
<html>
<head>
<style type="text/css">p { color: sienna; font-size: 20px; text-align: center; }</style>
</head>
<body bgcolor="cornsilk">
<p><em>
    <br/>
    On either side the river lie,<br/>
    Long fields of barley and of rye,<br/>
    And through the fields a road runs by,<br/>
    To many towered Camelot.
</em></p>
<p><img src="camelot.jpg"/></p>
</body>
</html>If you want to test this example the camelot.jpg image is downloadable from http://www.timelessmyths.com/arthurian/gallery/camelot.jpg.
Option 1: The file:// protocol for lookup from the filesystem.
This is the most straight-forward as it is just based on standard html layout in the filesystem - just place your html and it's relative referenced images somewhere in your filesystem in locations relative to each other - if your browser loads it properly, then your webengine will to if you give it the right file:// path.
In the case of file:///C:\\dev\\gettingstarted\\timeforgotten.html, timeforgotten.html is placed in c:\dev\gettingstarted and camelot.jpg image is placed in the same directory.
Option 2: The jar:file:// protocol for lookup from a jar hosted on the filesystem.
This makes use of the http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/java/net/JarURLConnection.html to find your resources.
If your application resources are packaged in a jar file (could be the same jar file as your main application class) then you can reference the jar file through the file protocol, then pick out the resources packaged in the jar file via their relative paths.
Option 3: The resource:// protocol for lookup based on the classpath.
This type of resource lookup is the one most Java programmers are familiar with - a classloader is used to load a resource. The pattern is widely used in web application frameworks on the server. But usually the means to do this is via a classloader.getResource() call, not via a URL.
Java does not, by default, have a URL protocol handler for looking up resources on the classpath, so if you want to do this, it is necessary to create your own protocol and install it.
The installation function is the commented out line: // URL.setURLStreamHandlerFactory(new HandlerFactory());
It is a system wide call for the VM and should be called (just once) before any URL Connections are established.
To get this to work I used a resource handler from http://www.arakhne.org/arakhneVmutils/index.html which included the following classes:
java.org.arakhne.vmutil.resource.Handler
java.org.arakhne.vmutil.resource.HandlerFactory
java.org.arakhne.vmutil.resource.URLConnection
java.org.arakhne.vmutil.ClassLoaderFinder
java.org.arakhne.vmutil.Resources
java.org.arakhne.vmutil.ResourceNotFoundException
java.org.arakhne.vmutil.URISchemeType
java.org.arakhne.vmutil.URLHandlerUtilDetails on how all this works are in http://java.sun.com/developer/onlineTraining/protocolhandlers/ which defines "A New Era for Java Protocol Handlers" by defining a URL handler extension mechanism which is hardly ever used.
As a final note to my way overly long forum post, when the WebEngine doesn't process the urls sometimes you can get info on what went wrong via the monitoring the loadWorker's exception property, but sometimes I was able to get more complete stack traces by trying to open a connection on a URL to see if I had got the URL correct - for example:
    URL url = new URL("jar:file:///C:\\dev\\javafx\\JavaFXidea\\out\\artifacts\\JavaFXidea_jar!/org/jewelsea/examples/webviewlocal/timeforgotten.html");
    url.openConnection();Anyway, just using the file:// protocol in webEngine.load() will probably accomplish what you need.
Note that if it is a webstart or browser embedded app, then you'll need to sign it if you want to access the local file system.

Escaping html tags

Hi all,
I have af:inputText with:
<af:autoSuggestBehavior suggestedItems="#{myBean.partSuggestedItems}"/> .
I am constructing the " List<SelectItem>" normally. No problem.
I am using code like:
SelectItem selectItem = new SelectItem();
selectItem.setValue(eValue);
selectItem.setLabel(eLabel);
...How can I escape HTML tag to be treated as HTML tag instead of pure string?
How can I achieve this??
Please advice.

Escape property can be defined on Output text only, not on input text.
I want to add style in the auto suggested list. So the values shown in Italic, or some color.
selectItem.setLabel(); expects a String.
So I want to fill my string with HTML tags.
I tried:
String italic = "<i>" + eLabel + "</i>";
selectItem.setLabel(italic);But obvious that did not work.
Can I escape HTML tags in a String value??

Escape HTML for Page Title

Hi,
We created a custom TLN.
I would like to produce href tags but I face the problem of escaping HTML characters :
<aa on_click="return EPCM.doNavigate('<%= currNavNode.getName()%>',0,'','null',1,'<%= *StringEscapeUtils.escapeHtml(*currNavNode2.getTitle(userLocale))%>','')" href="#"><%=currNavNode2.getTitle(userLocale)%></aa>
The problem is that the org.apache.commons.lang.StringEscapeUtils is not available (or I do not know how to make it available...).
How do you proceed for escaping :
- HTML
- URL
- Javascript
Thanks in advance for your help.
Best regards,
Guillaume

Hi,
After many tries, I found out that simply quotes and double-quotes is enough for the Javascript EPCM.doNavigate to work (almost) properly.
Here is the code I use in the toplevelnavigation.jsp :
<% String titlePage    = "";
   String escTitlePage = "";
   titlePage    = currNavNode2.getTitle(userLocale);
   escTitlePage = titlePage;
   escTitlePage = escTitlePage.replaceAll("\'","\\\\\'");
   escTitlePage = escTitlePage.replaceAll("\"","\\\\\"");
   //escTitlePage = escTitlePage.replaceAll("\\&","\\&");
   //escTitlePage = escTitlePage.replaceAll("\\&","\\%26");
%>
<a <%=level2Id%> oncclick="return EPCM.doNavigate('<%= currNavNode2.getName()%>',0,'','null',1,'<%= escTitlePage %>','')" href="#"><%= titlePage %></a>
The last problem I have is with '&'. Whatever escaping I try, I have a truncated string in the page title at position of the '&'...
Any idea ?
Thanks in advance.
Best regards,
Guillaume

Escaping html for dynamic javascript

Hi Folks,
Can anyone please tell me how I escape html for use in a function?
Here is my code:
onMouseover="ddrivetip('#jobdescription#','white', 300)";
Thanks in advance

Hi there
What is it you're trying to escape exactly? Do you mean you want the literal # signs to go in? If that's the case then use a double hash ## - Coldfusion will render a single one to the browser.
If that's not what you mean then some more info may be required

How to get a value given to a button in HTML using a href tag

Hi,
In my application I have loaded html content in WebView. In the HTML file i have used a Button to which i have given some value in href tag as
<a href="ButtonClick//testing/mysample">
<input type="button" value="Click me" />
</a>
When i click the button i want to get the string "ButtonClick//testing/mysample" in my app.. But i do not want to use InvokeScript() on my webview.. Could anyone please give me a solution for this?..
Thank you.

The only way to interact with HTML content from WebView is using JavaScript. You can do this by invoking such scripts from your C# code (using InvokeScript) or embedding the JavaScript method into the button you are working with.
But you need to know that if you intend to get a return value from your JavaScript code, you would need to use the InvokeScript.
Here's an example of printing the value from your hyperlink without InvokeScript. But note that it only prints the value and can't return the value to your C# code without InvokeScript.
string htmlContent = @"
<html>
<head>
<script type='text/javascript'>
function myFunction()
document.getElementById('myResult').innerHTML = document.getElementById('myLinkConent').href.substring(6); //remove 'about:' from href string
</script>
</head>
<body>
<a id='myLinkConent' href='ButtonClick//testing/mysample'>
</a>
<input type='button' value='Click me' onclick='myFunction()'/>
<p id='myResult'></p>
</body>
</html>";
Let me know if this helps.

Showing HTML content in jspx page

Hi,
We have stored text/html email messages in database and we want to display this on our page.
I tried with af:richTextEditor its not showing actual space & font. Few extra line breaks are added.
I tried af:outputText with escape=false it looks perfect. But all the menu items, command links, tab header label are started showing underlines and the UI looks odd. When I check the documentation it says
"In addition, nearly all attributes are ignored when "escape" is set to false"
I believe this is the reason the UI is showing odd.
All I need is just to show a html content inside a panelGroupLayout. Any suggestions?
Thiru

Hi,
here's what I think works best:
1. add an ADF Faces inlineFrame component to the page
2. Have the inlineFrame source property pointing to a servlet that reads and streams the HTML from the database as an HTML document

Hi Deepak!
This seems to be a well-known and quite widespread problem with this extension, unfortunately - the net is full of complaints about this issue, not to mention 'horror stories' about how this (otherwise fairly innocent and well-certified but clearly highly commercial) extension has 'sneaked' its way into peoples installations.
I find it quite amazing that such an issue has existed for so long without the Browser Highlighter, TinyMCE and FCKeditor teams getting together and making a working fix - it should be rather easy to prevent with a tag or plugin check in editor code and/or a simple editor recognition routine in the extension.
If you want (/need) to use this extension, I can only point you to the Browser Highlighter homepage for support; in [http://thebrowserhighlighter.com/help.jsp The Browser Highlighter Help section] it is clearly documented - first section, last paragraph - along with a link to [http://thebrowserhighlighter.com/blacklist.jsp this problem report form] where it seems you can ask for help solving the problem.
However, given the (script-)name of the page, I suppose that reporting a problem on your own website (with all details) actually adds your site - or part of it - to a blacklist that TBH maintains to turn off TBH or at least problematic script injections when visiting sites registered in this list. So actually this might help you solve the problem quite easily, if they do what the page implies.
Please let us know how above works out, and if we can be of further assistance. Detailed feedback is appreciated and helps us to help you better, plus enables us to better help more users with similar problems.
