Accepting HTML code in TextArea Objects

#1 · October 2, 2019, 2:15 am

I have a TextArea that accepts html code from the user. Is there anything I need to do to make it safe before passing to php and storing in sqlite? It seems to work fine as is. Even javascript code is saved and retrieved ok.. The code is not interpreted in the software, just the text version is displayed. But is this ok?

thanks!

Hi @darbdenral,
While you keep all the code into a TextArea there is not any risk, as it will never be executed.
Regards.
