Handling CDATA #5

Closed zuphilip closed 9 years ago

zuphilip commented 9 years ago

Is it possible to handle CDATA somehow easy? E.g. when importing the RSS feed https://forums.zotero.org/search.php?PostBackAction=Search&Type=Comments&Feed=RSS2

kba commented 9 years ago

Should be working now.

Yes, it is better but not yet solved. Because the first text node inside CDATA in the description is now ignored, and for example only the text after a <br/> is outputed.

It is working correctly, but the display in the user interface was wrong. CDATA parsing is slightly tricky: Need to get the text of the cdata node, jquery-append it to an element (so the text is parsed) and add that element to the DOM. Before, cdata was added as a whole, including opening and closing tags which jquery interpreted as a comment, hence the first element not showing up in the UI. Should be fixed now for descriptions.
