Dmitri Schoeman commented on DISPL-387:
---------------------------------------
I think the core issue is that the EscapeXmlColumnDecorator is calling
StringEscapeUtils.escapeXml()
Apache is doing what they are asked: in XML it is appropriate to escape a
single quote. I think the behavior should probably be to call
StringEscapeUtils.escapeHtml instead, which understands that a ' should not be
escaped in HTML.
My workaround is to create my own Decorator as Paul has done, but rather than
try to undo the wrong parts that escapeXML causes, I just directly call
escapeHTML.
I think this would also be the appropriate fix for the EscapeXmlColumnDecorator
class itself.
if (columnValue == null || (!media.equals(MediaTypeEnum.HTML) &&
!media.equals(MediaTypeEnum.XML)))
{
return columnValue;
}
return StringEscapeUtils.escapeHtml(columnValue.toString());

> It appears that displaytag escapes (when escapeXml="true") a single quote
> with '
> c:out and bean:write tags escape it with '
> The problem is that while Firefox and Safari understand ', Internet
> Explorer does not. All three browsers understand '.
> This means that all single quotes in displaytag tables will appear as ugly

> If there is a known workaround, could you let me know? thanks.
