[4suite] Bug or Feature? Char entities in attributes

Thu Feb 22 06:01:02 MST 2001

Hello,

I'm just starting to explore 4Suite, so please bear with me.

When applyinh the dom_from_html.py example to

---------------- test.html ------------------
<html>
  <head>
    <title>Character entities in attributes</title>
  </head>
  <body>
    <form>
      <input type="text" name="murx" value="&Auml;RGERLICH!">
    </form>
  </body>
</html>
---------------------------------------------
it yields
   <input ... value='&amp;Auml;RGERLICH!">

Looks like character entities aren't expanded in CDATA attributes
on imput but encoded on output.

Am I overlooking sth.?

Thx
  Siggy

btw: rgerlich == pesky :)
