Greetings
On my wiki using swedish characters for xwiki page titles give ugly but
working entries in all panels, e.g. "Backlinks" "Recent
modifications" and "My
recent modifications"
An example is having:
"Startsidor för våra intresseområden"
...instead of the correct:
"Startsidor för våra intresseområden"
Another example is putting thiss wiki code on top of a page:
= header that<look ugly> here =
The script responsible for for the texts in the panels is as follow:
<span class="panelitem">
<a href="$rdoc.getURL('view')">
$xwiki.getXMLEncoded($rdoc.displayTitle)
</a></span>
I've noticed that changing the third line into only $rdoc.displayTitle will
produce a nice looking entry, and $rdoc is set via
#set($rdoc = $xwiki.getDocument($docname).getTranslatedDocument())
Now, can anyone see a purpose of using getXMLEncoded() for this? As far as I
have seen, it only breaks things.
This is not caused by getXMLEncoded, it merely makes the problem
visible. This method must be used in order to prevent other problems:
Invalid XML, broken layout, XSS...
The problem is that the code inside getDisplayTitle wrongly uses a XML
escaping option.
No, this is valid because the job of $rdoc.displayTitle is to produce
xhtml content and theses are valid XML escapes.
Where does it say that it should produce xhtml content?
Assuming that it should produce xhtml, the behavior is inconsistent. If
the title is placed in the document.title field, then it returns
characters; if it is placed in the first heading, it returns escapes. If
we use wiki syntax in the document.title, we get back wiki syntax; if we
use wiki syntax in the first heading, we get back HTML. That is totally
inconsistent and confusing.
This is an API design problem that should be discussed further on the
dev list.
Going back to this specific problem, I think that it should be solved by
using the plaintext output syntax, since inside a panel we're not
interested in formatting or other markup inside the title, just the
textual content.
So you don't need to
use getXMLEncoded because any xml content is already properly escaped
(in xwiki/2.0 syntax).
I need to use getXMLEncoded because the title doesn't always come from
the content.
When you want a plain text version of the title you
should use
$rdoc.getRenderedTitle("plain/1.0").
