Does no one pay attention to the comments? The fix for this needs to happen on the libxml2 layer. The next version of libxml2 should resolve this and this bug is being kept open only in case some modification to the extension also needs to occur with the fix. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2008-12-17 00:49:19] scott...@php.net Recompile with libexpat or downgrade libxml. One of those will sort you out. A change to libxml will be in the next release, though the patch isn't in their repository yet. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2008-12-17 00:09:52] joshua at joshuascott dot net Any update on resolving this issue? All of my web based RSS aggregator sites are broken, I am unable to post using any desktop clients and none of the workarounds seem to work or can't be implemented due to various reasons. Please advise. This bug has been open for a long time and it seems to be affecting a lot of people. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2008-12-14 22:17:37] alykhanii at yahoo dot com This bug has been open for 4 months now. Any chance of this getting fixed anytime soon? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2008-12-07 13:08:43] rolysatch at hotmail dot com i did apply a patch to php 5.2.6 and got this bug with libxml2 fixed, but i just upgraded php to 5.2.7 cli (where i thought this big had been fixed) and i've got the same problem back again with angled brackets being stripped. anyone else upgraded and still got this issue? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2008-12-03 17:46:18] hoffie at gentoo dot org What is the current status of a fix (in contrast to a work around)? This issue breaks lots of web apps (Wordpress as we heard here, Typo3 as we heard in our bug tracker at Gentoo) and considering that the last release of 5.2.x is supposed to be released tomorrow, this sounds rather urgent... Downstream bug for Gentoo: http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=249703 (Gentoo users: Please report such bugs to us (as well), especially in case of such library interaction issues) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
