Bug #30910 Word wrapping in PHP.net source makes the Firefox RSS feature buggy
Submitted: 2004-11-26 15:36 UTC Modified: 2004-11-26 15:42 UTC
From: eiriksletteberg at hotmail dot com Assigned:
Status: Closed Package: Website problem
PHP Version: Irrelevant OS: irrelevant (browser=Firefox)
Private report: No CVE-ID: None

Description:
------------
In the php.net (HTML) source code (home/news page), there is a <link> tag which identifies the RSS file of the web site.
The newline character in this source makes the RSS subscriber buggy, because it shows up as a square character.
This is an annoying, but minor bug, and can be fixed easily simple by removing the newline character from the source.

Reproduce code:
---------------
<link rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml" title="PHP: Hypertext
Preprocessor" href="http://www.php.net/news.rss" />

Expected result:
----------------
The menu should read "Subscribe to 'PHP: Hypertext Preprocessor'..."

Actual result:
--------------
The menu reads "Subsribe to PHP: Hypertext# Preprocessor".

This bug has been fixed in CVS. Since the websites are not directly
updated from the CVS server, the fix might need some time to spread
across the globe to all mirror sites, including PHP.net itself.

Thank you for the report, and for helping us make PHP.net better.
