- WYSIWYG - What You See Is What You Get
- HTML Purifier: A Pretty Good Fit for TinyMCE and FCKeditor
-
- Javascript-based WYSIWYG editors, simply stated, are quite amazing. But I've
- always been wary about using them due to security issues: they handle the
- client-side magic, but once you've been served a piping hot load of unfiltered
- HTML, what should be done then? In some situations, you can serve it uncleaned,
- since you only offer these facilities to trusted(?) authors.
-
- Unfortunantely, for blog comments and anonymous input, BBCode, Textile and
- other markup languages still reign supreme. Put simply: filtering HTML is
- hard work, and these WYSIWYG authors don't offer anything to alleviate that
- trouble. Therein lies the solution:
-
- HTML Purifier is perfect for filtering pure-HTML input from WYSIWYG editors.
-
- Enough said.
