<blockquote type=cite class=cite cite>This is either a mistake in the

confirm...<br><br>
My understanding of the previous functionality if the "Allow ...
Tags"<br>
and "Convert Dangerous HTML to Text" settings for messages
containing<br>
dangerous tags...<br><br>
Allow ... Tags Convert
Dangerous actions<br>
Yes
No
None<br>
Yes
Yes
Stripped<br>
No
Yes or
No
Blocked<br><br>
Which makes me think the current behaviour is...<br><br>
Allow ... Tags Convert
Dangerous actions<br>
Yes
No
None<br>
Yes
Yes
Stripped<br>
Disarm
Yes or
No
Affected tags disarmed<br>
No
Yes or
No
Blocked<br><br>
But the new comment is ...<br><br>
#### BEGIN COMMENT ####<br>
# The following "Convert Dangerous HTML To Text" only applies
if set to<br>
# "yes" and if one or more of the above "Allow ...
Tags" settings is<br>
"no".<br>
# It does not apply if all those "Allow..." tags are
"yes" or "disarm".<br>
#<br>
# If an "Allow ... Tags = no" is triggered by a message, and
this<br>
# "Convert Dangerous HTML To Text" is set to "yes",
then the HTML<br>
# message will be converted to plain text. This makes the
HTML<br>
# harmless, while still allowing your users to see the text content<br>
# of the messages. Note that all graphical content will be
removed.<br>
#<br>
#### END COMMENT ####<br><br>
Which suggests the following behaviour...<br><br>
Allow ... Tags Convert
Dangerous actions<br>
Yes
Yes or
No
None<br>
Disarm
Yes or
No
Affected tags disarmed<br>
No
Yes
Stripped<br>
No
No
Blocked or None (not clear?)<br><br>
Have I completely missed something?</blockquote><br>
This is what I get for adding new features without removing old ones
:-)<br>
I *think* what happens (would have to study the source to prove it) is
this:<br><br>
<tt>Allow<x-tab> </x-tab>Convert<x-tab> </x-tab>Actions<br>
Yes<x-tab> </x-tab><x-tab> </x-tab>Yes/No<x-tab> </x-tab>None<br>
Disarm<x-tab> </x-tab>No<x-tab> </x-tab><x-tab> </x-tab>Disarm
affected tags<br>
Disarm<x-tab> </x-tab>Yes<x-tab> </x-tab><x-tab> </x-tab>Stripped<br>
No<x-tab> </x-tab><x-tab> </x-tab>Yes<x-tab> </x-tab><x-tab> </x-tab>Stripped<br>
No<x-tab> </x-tab><x-tab> </x-tab>No<x-tab> </x-tab><x-tab> </x-tab>Blocked<br>
