Html encoding of messages?
Good evening everyone,
I wonder if I can get Tapestry to html encode my messages (from
properties-files)?
For example, replace the "&"-character with "&".

Sure. From a previous thread you already had UTF-8 properties working, right?
So as long as the response output encoding is capable of displaying those
characters, you should see the properties strings exactly as given.
UTF-8 output encoding should be fine if your target browsers support it.
Cheers,
Nick.

Build my own jars is not an option.
In that case I prefer the "& å" in my properties file and use the
raw option.
But, I've also started to wonder if I really need this - if I use utf-8 all
the way I wouldn't need to use å ?

Maybe we need additional support in the MarkupCharacterTranslator?
I'm very new to Tapestry so I of course cannot make this decision,
but it would solve this issue and any possible others that are
similar. Anyone here familiar with the steps required to modify this
class? I'm not familiar with how source modifications go here.
Possibly an e-mail to the dev mailing list with the code for the patch?
Malin, in the mean time (a bad solution) you could modify the
ENTITIES in the MarkupCharacterTranslator and rebuild your tapestry
jars. Again I stress this is not a good solution as your patch would
need to be applied on every update and you would need your own jars
for every server, however possibly as a temporary solution?

Thank you Nick. I've read the docs, and I think I've understand it. Maybe
I've missed something?
The thing is:
If I have a message like this: "& å"
it will translate it to "& å"
or, with the raw="true" option I will get "& å"
But! What I want (as output) is this: "& å"
As I see it, to get this, I need to put "& å" in my properties
file and use the raw option.
But I would rather put "& å" in my properties file... but that's not
possible?

Of course it does. Otherwise your messages might contain unintentional HTML.
It's always a good idea to read the docs first:
http://tapestry.apache.org/tapestry4.1/usersguide/template.html#Localization
The <span> shortcut has a raw="true" option, just like @Insert.
Cheers,
Nick.

Craig, I've tried it... unfortunately it does replace å with the
&aring;
And it does not replace å with å
Also, I've noticed problems with these characters in the ValidationString
files. Here I use \u00e5 but should that really be necessary?

å will not be replaced with &aring;, å is the already
encoded version, not the to be encoded version.

But that won't work either of course... å will be replaced with
&aring;...

Well, I use either
<span key="messagekey">
or the @Insert (but the former is an @Insert also I think).
I see now I gave a really bad example. The & -> & works. But Swedish
characters, like å -> å doesn't.
So I guess I need to enter this in my properties files?

Aren't you using the @Insert component to output your messages?
It automatically does this encoding.
