Description Andrew Isherwood 2019-01-31 09:38:38 UTC
As the title, if a z39.50 target has an apostrophe in the name, the editor fails with an "Unexpected token" Javascript error. The array containing the targets is constructed then embedded in the page template and, since the string is enclosed in unescaped single apostrophes, things fall over.

The fix is to replace ' in target names with '

This patch doesn't work for me. What about doing this?

name: '[% server.servername | html_entity %]',

It looks like the html_entity filter is what we want here: http://template-toolkit.org/docs/manual/Filters.html#section_html_entity

Pushed to master for 21.05, thanks to everybody involved!
Comment 7 Fridolin Somers 2020-12-30 14:36:20 UTC
Not sure this was the best way to fix.
There are only a few places with 'html_entity' filter.
Other places use double-quotes for JS strings and html TT filter replaces double-quotes with &quot;
