When adding a portal comment via a Microsoft Portal, users are getting an error when adding text that is precedded with a < and ends with an >. So for example, you might paste in information with someone's email address like this:
Megan Walker <hello@meganvwalker.com>
When saving, the following error occurs:
Any ideas how to allow this kind of comment to go through with the characters?
*This post is locked for comments
I know this is older but wanted to add the setting that allows this. Keep in mind that you are disabling some security by allowing these symbols in the comments.
Create a site setting call DisableValidationWebTemplate and set this to True. But default this setting is False but you wont see it unless you add it.
Hi Megan,
I had also observed this in multiline text fields on Entity Form. Seems a bug in Dynamics 365 Portal. It does not allow angular brackets. We are managing it by removing the angle brackets '< >' on onpaste and onkeypress events
Here is the code you can take help to get rid of this
$(window).load(function(){
// Remove default onpaste event of textarea
$("#id").removeAttr("onpaste");
// OnKeypress Event
$('#id').keypress(function(event) {
if (event.keyCode == 60 || event.keyCode == 62) {
alert("You are not allowed to enter Angle brackets");
return false;
}
});
// Onpaste Event
$("#id").bind('paste',function()
{
setTimeout(function()
{
//get the value of the input text
var data= $('#id').val() ;
//replace the <> to ''
var dataFull = data.replace(/[<>]/g, '');
//set the new value of the input text without special characters
$('#id').val(dataFull);
});
});
});
Hope it helps.
