[Solved] < and > in comment body not shown

[IrQX]

It's impossible to write in comment "lesser" and "more" math symbols (also used as brackets, and as HTML tags symbols).

In title of topic I replaced this symbols to HTML ampersand_lt; and ampersand_gt;) but this way doesn't work in comment.

Hum. We shall fix. I passed that on to Marius to figure out how. ;)

< and > straight from the keyboard, looks fine here.

What browser and OS are you using, we can check if that is interfering with the comment box.

I used latest firefox under WinXP.

Now test again. It works only if there is space after "<" symbol.

If I using < > symbols as tags (text between them) text doesn't shows.

so, replacement _&_lt; and _&_gt; (without _) doesn't work in this case.

We have made some changes, lets see if it helped :)

<test>

Normal HTML:

<table border="1">
<tr>
<td>row 1, cell 1</td>
<td>row 1, cell 2</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>row 2, cell 1</td>
<td>row 2, cell 2</td>
</tr>
</table>

Now with entities instead:

<table border="1">
<tr>
<td>row 1, cell 1</td>
<td>row 1, cell 2</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>row 2, cell 1</td>
<td>row 2, cell 2</td>
</tr>
</table>

</test>

Great success.

This only works here on the "Beta Testing" forum for now btw, the other forums still has the old config.

Aha! Very nice. :)
