Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX

(Firefox OS Graveyard :: Gaia::Contacts, defect)

Description

[wacker]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.9; rv:31.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/31.0 (Beta/Release)
Build ID: 20140716183446

Steps to reproduce:

- Have a contact with "FZI, PDE" as company name in OS-X Contacts on Desktop.
- Export in vCard format (.vcf).
- Import in Gaia Contacts from memory card.


Actual results:

Contact company name shows comma-escaped as "FZI\, PDE" in Gaia Contacts.


Expected results:

Contact company name should be "FZI, PDE" as in the source.

rfc6350#section-6.6.4 specifies the ORG property giving an example containing a comma escaped value:

    ORG:ABC\, Inc.;North American Division;Marketing

Therefore, commas should be unescaped.

Comma escaping is described here:

but not taken into account here:
