msgfield mystery script

[Joe[y]]

I recently noticed that internet explorer is displaying a broken template. I looked at the source and a mystery script is running :

<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">
function insert_text(open, close)
{
msgfield = (document.commentform) ? document.commentform.message : document.forms[''][''];

// IE support
if (document.selection && document.selection.createRange)
{
msgfield.focus();
sel = document.selection.createRange();
sel.text = open + sel.text + close;
msgfield.focus();
}

// Moz support
else if (msgfield.selectionStart || msgfield.selectionStart == '0')
{
var startPos = msgfield.selectionStart;
var endPos = msgfield.selectionEnd;

msgfield.value = msgfield.value.substring(0, startPos) + open + msgfield.value.substring(startPos, endPos) + close + msgfield.value.substring(endPos, msgfield.value.length);
msgfield.selectionStart = msgfield.selectionEnd = endPos + open.length + close.length;
msgfield.focus();
}

// Fallback support for other browsers
else
{
msgfield.value += open + close;
msgfield.focus();
}

return;
}
-->

function lien() {
i = document.getElementById('page').liste.selectedInde x;
if (i == 0) return;
url = document.getElementById('page').liste.options[i].v alue;
parent.location.href = url;
}
</script>

This is not in any of my template files... so I have no idea what it is but the line '-->' breaks the template in IE. Is this something new to 1.4?

thanks!

in which file?

That isn't PP JS code.

[Joe[y]]

i removed all JS scripts from my templates and it was still there. I'm so confused.

Could my server be doing this?

[GeoS]

Yes it can. It can almoust everything.

It doesn't look like server code, it looks too specific to your template. Are you sure you've removed all javascript includes?

[Joe[y]]

removed every bit of JS from the template (even the PP JS) but to no avail. the mystery script was still there - on EVERY page. and it's still breaking IE.

[Rob]

Do you have a header.html in your template directory? Can you telnet or ssh in and use grep to find the offending code?

[Joe[y]]

apologies... the problem was a mixture of me adding a comment in my html doc before the doc-type and forgetting i had installed the 'smilies' addon a while back.



thanks for your time everybody! but it was just my stupidity, not PP. (although the smilies addon shows up an error in IE6)

Current CVS version of PP is almost clear and 100% compatible with XHTML. So next release should to be in all browsers (working with w3c.org specifications) correct.

PS We can't guarantee addons compatibility with XHTML.
