Item11682: LINKTOOLTIPINFO html corrupted if text contained quotes and removal created a WikiWord

Priority:	CurrentState:	AppliesTo:	Component:	WaitingFor:
Urgent	Closed	Engine

the issue that is Urgent for me:

client site has tooltips that worked ok on tmwiki, but cause bad html leakage.

its the simple thing i though it was, (to do with ' symbols), and I'm still trying to make an example that shows it for a unit test.

---

in the process of trying to find it, it seems that LINKTOOLTIPINFO=on is not always working right. (docco says it should result in Set LINKTOOLTIPINFO = $username - $date - r$rev: $summary, but instead i'm getting tips that say on

• Later: - this is probably due to a space at the end of the setting 'on ' - I wonder if this should be chomped for true.

mmm, seems that the issue is that someone decided to remove single and double quotes, without replacing them with anything. In the process, string s that were not initially WikiWords, suddenly become ones. and then corrupt the title="" string with 'create topic' html

so I'm going to fix this by using.... $summary = Foswiki::entityEncode($summary);

now to see if any unit tests fail (tbh, i don't think any other unit tests enable the 'view' script context, so nothing else ever tested tooltips

---

later: well, that does not work, as we then proceed to encode those encodings which of course the unit test does not show.

Unit tests are site configuration specific.
