Detailed information

ad_convert_to_html (public, deprecated)

 ad_convert_to_html [ -html_p html_p ] text
Deprecated. Invoking this procedure generates a warning.

Convenient interface to convert text or html into html. Does the same as ad_html_text_convert -to html.

Switches:
-html_p (optional, defaults to "f")
specify t if the value of text is formatted in HTML, or f if text is plaintext. DEPRECATED: this proc is a trivial wrapper for ad_html_text_convert
Parameters:
text (required)

ad_dom_sanitize_html (public)

 ad_dom_sanitize_html -html html [ -allowed_tags allowed_tags ] \
    [ -allowed_attributes allowed_attributes ] \
    [ -allowed_protocols allowed_protocols ] \
    [ -unallowed_tags unallowed_tags ] \
    [ -unallowed_attributes unallowed_attributes ] \
    [ -unallowed_protocols unallowed_protocols ] [ -no_js ] \
    [ -no_outer_urls ] [ -validate ] [ -fix ]

Sanitizes HTML by specified criteria, basically removing unallowed tags and attributes, JavaScript or outer references into page URLs. When desired, this proc can act also as just a validator in order to enforce some markup policies on user-submitted content.

Switches:
-html (required)
the markup to be checked.
-allowed_tags (optional)
list of tags we allow in the markup.
-allowed_attributes (optional)
list of attributes we allow in the markup.
-allowed_protocols (optional)
list of attributes we allow into links
-unallowed_tags (optional)
list of tags we don't allow in the markup.
-unallowed_attributes (optional)
list of attributes we don't allow in the markup.
-unallowed_protocols (optional)
list of protocols we don't allow in the markup. Protocol-relative URLs are allowed, but only if proc is called from a connection thread, as we need to determine our current connection protocol.
-no_js (optional, boolean)
this flag decides whether every script tag, inline event handlers and the javascript: pseudo-protocol should be stripped from the markup.
-no_outer_urls (optional, boolean)
this flag tells the proc to remove every reference to external addresses. Proc will try to distinguish between external URLs and fine fully specified internal ones. Acceptable URLs will be transformed in absolute local references, others will be just stripped together with the attribute. Absolute URLs referring to our host are allowed, but require the proc being called from a connection thread in order to determine the proper current url.
-validate (optional, boolean)
This flag will avoid the creation of the stripped markup and just report whether the original one respects all the specified requirements.
-fix (optional, boolean)
When parsing fails on markup as it is, try to fix it by, for example, closing unclosed tags or normalizing attribute specification. This operation will remove most of plain whitespace into text content of original HTML, together with every comment and the eventually present DOCTYPE declaration.
Returns:
sanitized markup or a (0/1) truth value when the -validate flag is specified

ad_html_qualify_links (public)

 ad_html_qualify_links [ -location location ] [ -path path ] html

Convert in the HTML text relative URLs into fully qualified URLs including the hostname. It performs the following operations: 1. prepend paths starting with a "/" by the location (protocol and host). 2. prepend paths not starting a "/" by the path, in case it was passed in. Links, which are already fully qualified are not modified.

Switches:
-location (optional)
protocol and host (defaults to [ad_url])
-path (optional)
optional path to be prepended to paths not starting with a "/"
Parameters:
html (required)
HTML text, in which substitutions should be performed.

    [ -allowed_attributes allowed_attributes ] \
    [ -allowed_protocols allowed_protocols ] html

Returns a human-readable explanation if the user has used any HTML tag other than the allowed ones. It uses for checking the provided values. If these values are not provided the function takes the union of the per-package instance value and the values from the "antispam" section of the kernel parameters.

Switches:
-allowed_tags (optional)
-allowed_attributes (optional)
-allowed_protocols (optional)
Parameters:
html (required)
The HTML text being validated.
Returns:
a human-readable, plaintext explanation of what's wrong with the user's input. If everything is ok, return an empty string.

ad_html_text_convert (public)

 ad_html_text_convert [ -from from ] [ -to to ] [ -maxlen maxlen ] \
    [ -truncate_len truncate_len ] [ -ellipsis ellipsis ] \
    [ -more more ] text

Converts a chunk of text from a variety of formats to either text/html or text/plain.

Example: ad_html_text_convert -from "text/html" -to "text/plain" -- "text"

Putting in the -- prevents Tcl from treating a - in text portion from being treated as a parameter.

Html to html closes any unclosed html tags (see util_close_html_tags).

Text to HTML does ad_text_to_html, and HTML to text does an ad_html_to_text. See those procs for details.

When text is empty, then an empty string will be returned regardless of any format. This is especially useful when displaying content that was created with the richtext widget and might contain empty values for content and format.

Switches:
-from (optional, defaults to "text/plain")
specify what type of text you're providing. Allowed values:
  • text/plain
  • text/enhanced
  • text/markdown
  • text/fixed-width
  • text/html
-to (optional, defaults to "text/html")
specify what format you want this translated into. Allowed values:
  • text/plain
  • text/html
-maxlen (optional, defaults to "70")
The maximum line width when generating text/plain
-truncate_len (optional, defaults to "0")
The maximum total length of the output, included ellipsis.
-ellipsis (optional, defaults to "...")
This will get put at the end of the truncated string, if the string was truncated. However, this counts towards the total string length, so that the returned string including ellipsis is guaranteed to be shorter than the 'truncate_len' provided.
-more (optional)
This will get put at the end of the truncated string, if the string was truncated.
Parameters:
text (required)

ad_string_truncate (public)

 ad_string_truncate [ -len len ] [ -ellipsis ellipsis ] [ -more more ] \
    [ -equal ] string

Truncates a string to len characters adding the string provided in the ellipsis parameter if the string was truncated. The length of the resulting string, including the ellipsis, is guaranteed to be shorter or equal than the len specified. Should always be called as ad_string_truncate [-flags ...] -- string since otherwise strings which start with a - will treated as switches, and will cause an error.

Switches:
-len (optional, defaults to "200")
The length to truncate to. If zero, no truncation will occur.
-ellipsis (optional, defaults to "...")
This will get put at the end of the truncated string, if the string was truncated. However, this counts towards the total string length, so that the returned string including ellipsis is guaranteed to be shorter or equal than the 'len' provided.
-more (optional)
This will get put at the end of the truncated string, if the string was truncated.
-equal (optional, boolean)
Parameters:
string (required)
The string to truncate.

ad_text_to_html (public)

 ad_text_to_html [ -no_links ] [ -no_lines ] [ -no_quote ] \
    [ -includes_html ] [ -encode ] text

Converts plaintext to html. Also translates any recognized email addresses or URLs into a hyperlink.

Switches:
-no_links (optional, boolean)
will prevent it from highlighting
-no_lines (optional, boolean)
-no_quote (optional, boolean)
will prevent it from HTML-quoting output, so this can be run on semi-HTML input and preserve that formatting. This will also cause spaces/tabs to not be replaced with nbsp's, because this can too easily mess up HTML tags.
-includes_html (optional, boolean)
Set this if the text parameter already contains some HTML which should be preserved.
-encode (optional, boolean)
This will encode international characters into its html equivalent, like "ü" into ü
Parameters:
text (required)

string_truncate (public, deprecated)

 string_truncate [ args... ]
Deprecated. Invoking this procedure generates a warning.

Truncates a string to len characters adding the string provided in the ellipsis parameter if the string was truncated. The length of the resulting string, including the ellipsis, is guaranteed to be shorter or equal than the len specified. Should always be called as ad_string_truncate [-flags ...] -- string since otherwise strings which start with a - will treated as switches, and will cause an error.

Returns:
The truncated string

util_close_html_tags (public)

 util_close_html_tags html_fragment [ break_soft ] [ break_hard ] \
    [ ellipsis ] [ more ]

Given an HTML fragment, this procedure will close any tags that have been left open. The optional arguments let you specify that the fragment is to be truncated to a certain number of displayable characters. After break_soft, it truncates and closes open tags unless you're within non-breaking tags (e.g., Af). After break_hard displayable characters, the procedure simply truncates and closes any open HTML tags that might have resulted from the truncation.

Note that the internal syntax table dictates which tags are non-breaking. The syntax table has codes:

  • nobr -- treat tag as nonbreaking.
  • discard -- throws away everything until the corresponding close tag.
  • remove -- nuke this tag and its closing tag but leave contents.
  • close -- close this tag if left open.

Parameters:
html_fragment (required)
break_soft (optional, defaults to "0")
the number of characters you want the HTML fragment truncated to. Will allow certain tags (A, ADDRESS, NOBR) to close first.
break_hard (optional, defaults to "0")
the number of characters you want the HTML fragment truncated to. Will truncate, regardless of what tag is currently in action.
ellipsis (optional)
This will get put at the end of the truncated string, if the string was truncated. However, this counts towards the total string length, so that the returned string including ellipsis is guaranteed to be shorter than the 'len' provided.
more (optional)
This will get put at the end of the truncated string, if the string was truncated.

util_expand_entities (public, deprecated)

 util_expand_entities html
Deprecated. Invoking this procedure generates a warning.

Replaces all occurrences of common HTML entities with their plaintext equivalents in a way that's appropriate for pretty-printing.

Currently, the following entities are converted: &lt;, &gt;, &apm;quot;, &amp;, &mdash; and &#151;.

This proc is more suitable for pretty-printing that its sister-proc, util_expand_entities_ie_style. The two differences are that this one is more strict: it requires proper entities i.e., both opening ampersand and closing semicolon, and it doesn't do numeric entities, because they're generally not safe to send to browsers. If we want to do numeric entities in general, we should also consider how they interact with character encodings.

Parameters:
html (required)

util_expand_entities_ie_style (public, deprecated)

 util_expand_entities_ie_style html
Deprecated. Invoking this procedure generates a warning.

Replaces all occurrences of &#111; and &x0f; type HTML character entities to their ASCII equivalents. It also handles lt, gt, quot, ob, cb and amp.

This proc does the expansion in the style of IE and Netscape, which is to say that it doesn't require the trailing semicolon on the entity to replace it with something else. The reason we do that is that this proc was designed for checking HTML for security-issues, and since entities can be used for hiding malicious code, we'd better simulate the liberal interpretation that browsers does, even though it complicates matters.

Unlike its sister proc, util_expand_entities, it also expands numeric entities (#999 or #xff style).

    Given an HTML fragment, this procedure will close any tags that
    have been left open.  The optional arguments let you specify that
    the fragment is to be truncated to a certain number of displayable
    characters.  After break_soft, it truncates and closes open tags unless
    you're within non-breaking tags (e.g., Af).  After break_hard displayable
    characters, the procedure simply truncates and closes any open HTML tags
    that might have resulted from the truncation.
    <p>
    Note that the internal syntax table dictates which tags are non-breaking.
    The syntax table has codes:
    <ul>
    <li>  nobr --  treat tag as nonbreaking.
    <li>  discard -- throws away everything until the corresponding close tag.
    <li>  remove -- nuke this tag and its closing tag but leave contents.
    <li>  close -- close this tag if left open.
    </ul>

    @param break_soft the number of characters you want the HTML fragment
    truncated to. Will allow certain tags (A, ADDRESS, NOBR) to close first.

    @param break_hard the number of characters you want the HTML fragment
    truncated to. Will truncate, regardless of what tag is currently in action.

    @param ellipsis  This will get put at the end of the truncated string, if the string was truncated.
    However, this counts towards the total string length, so that the returned string
    including ellipsis is guaranteed to be shorter than the 'len' provided.

    @param more      This will get put at the end of the truncated string, if the string was truncated.

    # The code in this function had an exponential behavior based on
    # the size.  On the current OpenACS.org site (Jan 2009), the
    # function took on certain forums entries 6 to 9 hours
    # (e.g. /forums/message-view?message_id=357753). This is in
    # particular a problem, since bots like googlebot will timeout on
    # these entries (while OpenACS is still computing the content) and
    # retry after some time until they get the result (which never
    # happened). So, often multiple computation ran at the same
    # time. Since OpenACS.org is configured with only a few connection
    # threads, this is essentially a "bot DOS attack".
    #
    # Therefore, the tdom-based code in the next paragraph is used to
    # speedup the process significantly (most entries are anyway
    # correct).  The forum processing query from above takes now 7.3
    # seconds instead of 9h. The tdom-based code was developed as an
    # emergency measure.
    #
    # The code below the mentioned paragraph could be certainly as
    # well made faster, but this will require some more detailed
    # analysis.
    #
    # The best solution for forums would be to check the fragment not
    # at rendering time, but at creation time.

    Each element of that list is either a single element, if the attribute had no value, or
    a two-tuple, with the first element being the name of the attribute and the second being
    the value. The attribute names are all converted to lowercase.
    <p>
    If you don't really care what happens when the same attribute is present twice, you can also use the
    <code>attribute_array</code> argument, and the attributes will be
    set there. For attributes without any value, we'll use the empty string.
    <p>
    Example:

    <pre>set html {&lt;tag foo = bar baz greble="&amp;quot;hello you sucker&amp;quot;" foo='blah' Heres = '  something for   you to = "consider" '&gt;}

    set attribute_list [ad_parse_html_attributes_upvar -attribute_array attribute_array html pos]</pre>

    <code>attribute_list</code> will contain the following:
    <pre>{foo bar} baz {greble {"hello you sucker"}} {foo blah} {heres {  something for   you to = "consider" }}</pre>
    <code>attribute_array</code> will contain:
    <pre>attribute_array(foo)='blah'
    attribute_array(greble)='"hello you sucker"'
    attribute_array(baz)=''
    attribute_array(heres)='  something for   you to = "consider" '</pre>

    <p>

    Won't alter the string passed in .. promise!

    after the tag name (we don't care if you let if there's some whitespace before the first attribute)


    @param html_varname the name of the variable holding the HTML
    fragment. We promise that we won't change the contents of this
    variable.

    @param pos_varname the name of the variable holding the position
    within the <code>html_varname</code> string from which we should
    start. This should point to a character inside the tag, just after
    the tag name, and before the first attribute. Note that we <i>will</i> modify this variable.
    When this proc is done, this variable will point to the tag-closing <code>&gt;</code>.
    Example:
    if the tag is &lt;img src="foo"&gt;, <code>pos_varname</code> should point to either the space between
    <code>img</code> and <code>src</code>, or the <code>s</code> in <code>src</code>.

    about what happens when the same attribute name is defined twice.

    Similar in spirit to the famous Tidy command line utility,
    this proc takes a piece of possibly invalid markup and returns
    a 'fixed' version where unopened tags have been closed and
    attribute specifications have been normalized by transforming them
    in the form <code>attribute-name="attribute value"</code>. All
    attributes with an invalid (non-alphanumeric) name will be
    stripped.<br>
    <br>
    Be aware that every comment and also the possibly present
    DOCTYPE declaration will be stripped from the markup. Also,
    most of tag's internal whitespace will be trimmed. This
    behavior comes from the htmlparse library used in this
    implementation.

    @param html Markup to process

    @param marker Root element use to enforce a single root of the
    DOM tree.

    @param dom When this flag is set, instead of returning markup,
    the proc will return the tDOM object built during the
    operation. Useful when the result should be used by tDOM
    anyway, so we can avoid superfluous parsing.

    @return markup or a tDOM document object if the -dom flag is
    specified

    the markup. Protocol-relative URLs are allowed, but only if
    proc is called from a connection thread, as we need to
    determine our current connection protocol.

    @param no_js this flag decides whether every script tag,
    inline event handlers and the javascript: pseudo-protocol
    should be stripped from the markup.

    @param no_outer_urls this flag tells the proc to remove every
    reference to external addresses. Proc will try to distinguish
    between external URLs and fine fully specified internal
    ones. Acceptable URLs will be transformed in absolute local
    references, others will be just stripped together with the
    attribute. Absolute URLs referring to our host are allowed,
    but require the proc being called from a connection thread in
    order to determine the proper current url.

    @param validate This flag will avoid the creation of the
    stripped markup and just report whether the original one
    respects all the specified requirements.

    @param fix When parsing fails on markup as it is, try to fix
    it by, for example, closing unclosed tags or normalizing
    attribute specification. This operation will remove most of
    plain whitespace into text content of original HTML, together
    with every comment and the eventually present DOCTYPE
    declaration.

ad_proc -deprecated util_expand_entities { html } {

    Replaces all occurrences of common HTML entities with their plaintext equivalents
    in a way that's appropriate for pretty-printing.

    <p>

    Currently, the following entities are converted:
    &amp;lt;, &amp;gt;, &apm;quot;,  &amp;amp;, &amp;mdash; and &amp;#151;.

    <p>

    This proc is more suitable for pretty-printing that its
    sister-proc, <a href="/api-doc/proc-view?proc=util_expand_entities_ie_style"><code>util_expand_entities_ie_style</code></a>.
    The two differences are that this one is more strict: it requires
    proper entities i.e., both opening ampersand and closing semicolon,
    and it doesn't do numeric entities, because they're generally not safe to send to browsers.
    If we want to do numeric entities in general, we should also
    consider how they interact with character encodings.

    @see ns_unquotehtml
} {
    regsub -all -- {&lt;} $html {<} html
    regsub -all -- {&gt;} $html {>} html
    regsub -all -- {&quot;} $html "\"" html
    regsub -all -- {&mdash;} $html {--} html
    regsub -all -- {&#151;} $html {--} html
    # Need to do the &amp; last, because otherwise it could interfere with the other expansions,
    # e.g., if the text said &amp;lt;, that would be translated into <, instead of &lt;
    regsub -all -- {&amp;} $html {\&} html
    return $html
}

ad_proc -deprecated util_expand_entities_ie_style { html } {
    Replaces all occurrences of &amp;#111; and &amp;x0f; type HTML character entities
    to their ASCII equivalents. It also handles lt, gt, quot, ob, cb and amp.

    <p>

    This proc does the expansion in the style of IE and Netscape, which is to say that it
    doesn't require the trailing semicolon on the entity to replace it with something else.
    The reason we do that is that this proc was designed for checking HTML for security-issues,
    and since entities can be used for hiding malicious code, we'd better simulate the
    liberal interpretation that browsers does, even though it complicates matters.

    <p>

    Unlike its sister proc, <a href="/api-doc/proc-view?proc=util_expand_entities"><code>util_expand_entities</code></a>,
    it also expands numeric entities (#999 or #xff style).
