Sean DynanMemberHi
IE6
Firebird 0.7.1When I click Preview or Submit during a post to a forum I get redirected to the MyEclipse Home page.
Is this intentional??

SeanUpdate: this seems to be Topic-specific. I can get a Preview in this topic, but not when I post to the Eclipse Workbench Support topic. 😕
Furthermore, this topic doesn’t give me the option to edit my post after I have submitted it, unlike the EW Support topic.
And the in-message Smilies are turned off too!
At the risk of getting laughed off the Forum completely, can you enlighten me: do I have topic-specific settings I must tweak first..? 🙁

Scott AndersonParticipantSean,
The problem is most likely that you’re previewing or posting code with html/xml content in it. The portal filters it a bit because of cross site scripting hacks that are possible if you don’t. In the future, try surrounding any block containing angle brackets with
. That should instruct the portal to ignore it.

Sean DynanMemberThanks Scott. That seemed to be the error all right. I had pasted my .project file into a posting to a different topic and that broke the Preview. However, the .project file broke the preview whether or not it was enclosed in code BBCodes.
Does this mean we cannot inline XML or HTML snippets in our posts?

Scott AndersonParticipantSean,
Usually the posts go through just fine. It’s just the redirect after the post that gets messed up. Did your post show up?

Sean DynanMemberYes, when I clicked Submit the post showed up, even with the .project file embedded inside. But I was still redirected to the Home page (just like when I clicked Preview).

Scott AndersonParticipantSean,
Yeah, I’ve seen this too. It’s probably an issue with postNuke, which is what we use to run the site. It’s mildly annoying, but since the post goes through I’ve tended to ignore it in the past. Probably something we should submit to them as a bug though.
