1104063 - CSS Code Snippets Don't Allow Embedded HTML

Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX

(developer.mozilla.org Graveyard :: Wiki pages, defect)

Description

What did you do?
================


I don't know if this is the right place to post the problem (basically if this is a problem with Kuma or the documentation), but I saw it in a number of places so I figured I'd post about it here.

It looks like when trying to format a code snippet of CSS, actually displaying it on the page causes all the HTML to be escaped. Meanwhile in the editor, it formats the selection properly. I think it becomes pretty obvious with an example, so here's one: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/animation#Syntax


What happened?

What should have happened?
==========================
 

Is there anything else we should know?

This is a limitation of prism.js which gets run on the page but not on in the wiki editor. 

In Bug 1102508 we are trying to find a solution specifically for the syntax boxes, (it would not apply for all code snippets).
