> Key: RF-5599
> URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/RF-5599
> Project: RichFaces
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: component-input
> Affects Versions: 3.3.1
> Reporter: Alessandro Behling
> Assignee: Nick Belaevski
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: 3.3.2.CR1
>
> Attachments: CustomComponent.java, customComponent.jsp

> The problem presented itself when we migrated data from a legacy database.
> The migrated data is full of bits of descriptions that might include angle
> brackets. ie.
> 'XXXX - US.1 <ORIG 5 MINS> - YYYYY 1'
> On my list of results being displayed inside the the suggestion box, this
> gets listed as expected, but once I select this item and set it back to the
> input field the suggestion box is attached, it gets retrieved as
> 'XXXX - US.1 - YYYYY 1'
> After spending the day debuging the code, I managed to find out that the
> snipet of html that is sent back to the client has a few TDs
> will try to rougly write it how it looked
> <TD display:"NONE">XXXX - US.1 - YYYYY 1<TD>
> <TD>XXXX - US.1 <ORIG 5 MINS> - YYYYY 1<TD>
> and the bit that gets used is the first TD which doesn't get displayed and is
> picked as the value of the item inside my list
> The behaviour I would expect is that the value is honored as it is, since we
> cannot change the data which has been migrated from an old application and
> this is a major impact on the way the application will work. What seems to be
> happening is that RichFaces thinks the tags are dirty and wrong HTML bits and
> tries to be clever and cleans it up for you, but in this case what it
> actually does is screw the whole point of using the interface component
> Could it have an option of honoring such characters? so that it could fit to
> the purpose it already has, and also, suit cases like the one described
