[jira] [Commented] (NIFI-327) Add Processor dialog improper HTML
encoding of processor descriptions
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-327?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=14311442#comment-14311442 ]
Aldrin Piri commented on NIFI-327:
----------------------------------
The issue stems from nf-canvas-toolbox.js invocation of
{code}
description: nf.Common.escapeHtml(documentedType.description),
{code}
This is encoding &<>"'\/. In the context of the description, I think this is heavy-handed, and only a subset of those characters is needed.
