Portal: Can not save records because of Cross-Site Scripting validations

Posted on by Irena Benja 414

Hello everyone,

I am having an issue, the Cross-Site Scripting validations on Portal do not allow me to Update/Save a record.

My records have a description field where the content contains HTML tag </br>, this tag is needed.

Do you have any suggestion ?

Many thanks in advance,

Irena.

    Found also:

    function escapeHtml(unsafe) {
    return unsafe
         .replace(/&/g, "&amp;")
         .replace(/</g, "&lt;")
         .replace(/>/g, "&gt;")
         .replace(/"/g, "&quot;")
         .replace(/'/g, "&#039;");
 }


    In my case, the field was readonly and assigning text area:

    var text = originalText.replaceAll("<br/>", "");
    would work perfectly!

    Hi Iran

    Can you please replace the description field HTML tag before saving like below -

    var text = descriptiontext.replace(/&/g, "&").replace(/>/g, ">").replace(/</g, "<").replace(/"/g, """);

    And then assign the description text again with above  text.
