352382 - Name of extension developer with non-ASCII chars gets double encoded with htmlentities() (e.g. å becomes å)

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(addons.mozilla.org Graveyard :: Public Pages, defect)

Description

[Håvar I. Henriksen [:havarh]]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; nb-NO; rv:1.8.0.6) Gecko/20060728 Firefox/1.5.0.6
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; nb-NO; rv:1.8.0.6) Gecko/20060728 Firefox/1.5.0.6

If the name of an extension developer contains non-ASCII chars the htmlentities gets double encoded, e.g. å becomes å, this is only a problem in the displaying of the name in the extensions list. The name is displayed correctly in the user profile view in the devCP.
Example:
Norsk Bokmål og Nynorsk ordliste 2.0.8.1
By Håvar I. Henriksen
Code:
<h2 class="first"><a href="/firefox/3075/">Norsk Bokm&aring;l og Nynorsk ordliste 2.0.8.1</a></h2>
<p class="first">By <a href="/firefox/34128/author/">H&amp;aring;var I. Henriksen</a> </p>
As you can see, the name of the extension is displayed correctly (non-ASCII chars is only encoded once), but not the name of the developer.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
(No need to do these steps, since the data is public)
1. Create a user with non-ASCII chars, e.g. Kåre Bjarne
2. Upload a new extension as this user
3. Check the extension page and check out the htmlentities() encoding of the name of the developer

Actual Results:  
Gets displayed as K&amp;aring;re Bjarne

Expected Results:  
Should be displayed as K&aring;re Bjarne
