LocalFrameContextView is succeptible to something like XSS (not a security 
issue though)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: JBEHAVE-654
                 URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/JBEHAVE-654
             Project: JBehave
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Web Selenium
    Affects Versions: web-3.4.3
            Reporter: Alexander Lehmann
            Priority: Minor


the status display in org.jbehave.web.selenium.LocalFrameContextView is 
constructing a html string for the current step by concatenating the strings 
with html tags, this will not work if the step itself contains html tags or 
javascript fragments.

This doesn't cause any real issues but it makes the current step fail, in 
essence this is an injection error (if this were in a web application, this 
would be sufficient for a xss bug).

I noticed this when writing an example xss story for my project, for now I just 
commented out the offending steps, I will submit a patch when I get around to 
on the weekend.
