Forum OpenACS Development: Re: Strange intermittent xowiki form-fill error caused by Xinha.

Gustaf,

The error happened on the original installation (standard 5.5.1 installation with everything installed from the repository through the OpenACS installer pages).

I have done nothing on the HEAD c/o of xowiki other than test the redirect form. Sorry for not being clear.

My test set up for the redirect form was a standard 5.5.1 for everything (i.e. copied file trees) except xotcl-core, xowiki, xowiki-includelet and xowiki-portlet all of which were checked out anonymously from CVS using the HEAD tag. I have not yet tested this for the Xinha langmark {} error.

So the Xinha error is a live bug in the current stable release.

strange, i see no reason, why the langmark warning does not show up on every xinha enabled form then... the problem has nothing todo with the redirects.

anyhow, solution paths (a) or (b) will help.

Exactly, that is what puzzled me. Unless for some peculiar reason it is the presence of a '%' character that was legitimately in the content text of the field that caused the error.

Is Xinha pre-emptively setting a parameter based upon an evaluation of the content of the field?

Content dependent behaviour is the only plausible hypothesis that I can think of.

What is the story with the percent character? That's new for me. A content-dependent behavior is not plausible for me.
In that case, maybe I am mistaken. Perhaps I enetered the two pages that worked before setting the field to richtext. In all honesty I cannot recall the sequence.

😊
