[jira] Commented: (MYFACES-1396) International characters are not properly encoded to Mnemonic/Numeric values (Was: Too much escaping)

--------------------------------------------

Hi Paul,

I believe that MyFaces is indeed misbehaving here - it's probably the HtmlResponseWriter which is encoding too much. 

regards,

Martin

> HTMLOutputText (which delegates to HTMLEncoder) escapes not only XML-invalid charactres (like <, >, &), but also german umlauts. This is OK if generating (X)HTML, but not OK if generating XML. However, according to the official documentation to the outputText Tag the german umlauts should not be quoted: If the "escape" attribute is not present, or it is present and its value is "true" all angle brackets should be converted to the ampersand xx semicolon syntax when rendering the value of the "value" attribute as the value of the component.
> There is an automatic XML detection, but this is broken, as only predefined MIME-types are recognized (application/xhtml+xml, application/xml, text/xml).
> This bug prevents using JSF for generating other content (e.g. SVG, MIME-type image/svg+xml).
