CForms HTMLArea

Hi,
Apologies if this has been asked before, but I would like to use HTML 
area (in CForms) and I was wondering about the following:

1. Does it support HTML or XHTML. I assume that it isn't the same code 
from dynarch, so it's claims about it not supporting XHTML is not true
2. What does it do with non-XML entity references?

 From the example, it looks like that the entity references are stripped 
out and it does use XHTML, I just want to confirm.

Cheers.

Hi,
I noticed this code:

      <fd:datatype base="string">
        <fd:convertor type="htmlcleaner" 
config="resource://org/apache/cocoon/forms/datatype/convertor/HtmlCleanerConfiguration.xml"/>
      </fd:datatype>

in the examples, what is it doing, is it doing what Peter was talking 
about or something else?

Cheers.

Hi Kamal,

I had the same poblem some time ago and received the following reply 
from Jasha Joachimsthal (03/09/2007 19:09)

"The XMLSerializer closes all elements which leads to an unwanted result 
in case of textarea, script and some other elements that browsers can't 
handle when closed. You can make your own XSL that imports the cforms 
XSLs and override the template of the textarea. An other option is to 
use org.apache.cocoon.components.serializers.XHTMLSerializer. You may 
have to use the latest 2.1 branch code of this block, some issues have 
been fixed in the code the last few months."

I used the org.apache.cocoon.components.serializers.XHTMLSerializer from 
2.1.10 and that fixed the problem

Regards

Peter
