htmldecode

[[WP]joju]

i have a grid panel wherein if i put html tag in the content of a grid column, it gets displayed as is... meaning if i put in [B] tags then the column would be bold, even if use this code

 <ext:Column DataIndex="LastName" Header="Last Name" ColumnID="lastname">
         <Renderer Format="HtmlDecode" />
</ext:Column>

Shouldnt you encode the string to get the tags displayed as tags instead of interpreted as html?

yeah but why is it that even if i set the autoEncode property of the grid panel to true it still renders as html?

Hi,

I believe that you should use HtmlEncode instead HtmlDecode

[[WP]joju]

is htmlencode even available in v.82?

error:
Cannot
create an object of type 'Coolite.Ext.Web.RendererFormat' from its
string representation 'HtmlEncode' for the 'Format' property.

Hi,

Yes, it seems 0.8.2 doesn't contain that value (but 1.0 contains)
Use the following renderer

<Renderer Handler="return Ext.util.Format.htmlEncode(value);"/>

ok thanks

[[WP]joju]

is there any better way to do this other than setting each renderer for each grid column that i have?

[[WP]joju]

seems like i really have to put something like this on each grid column since even if i encode the text before saving to db, it still renders as html without the encoding before display... even if its store as "<b>Jucom</b>" in the database it still renders as bold text in the grid column

[[WP]joju]

hayyyy why is it like this? if i save an encoded string in db, i cannot decode it anymore or show in in plain tags? if i save text encoded in DB = saved text in db is <b>text</b>

using <Renderer Handler="return Ext.util.Format.htmlEncode(value);"/> will result in blank grid column

using <Renderer Handler="return Ext.util.Format.htmlDecode(value);"/> will result in blank grid column


using <Renderer Format="htmlDecode"/> will result in bold text


using no renderer will result in bold text
