512578 - Remove HTML from Validation messages

Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX

(addons.mozilla.org Graveyard :: Developer Pages, defect, P4)

Description

[RJ Walsh [:rjwalsh]]

HTML in these messages cause problems on the validation page, since we escape it.  We should remove any instances (they should all be in the validation component) and add relevant information to /pages/validation.

Comment 1

Are these what we're talking about?



___('Please see <a href="%s">this page</a> for reference.')

___('The version of this add-on is invalid: please see the <a href="http://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/Toolkit_version_format">specification</a>')

___('Your add-on is attempting to use a GUID that has been blocked.  Please <a href="%1$s">contact the AMO staff</a>.')

Comment 2

[RJ Walsh [:rjwalsh]]

Yep, in addition:  ___('The following errors were found in install.rdf:').'<br \
/>'.$errorStr.'<br />'.$validAppReference;

These errors happen before the validation suite is run so there aren't handy links to /pages/validation.  This isn't high priority, so kicking out of 5.1
