Here's what I recommend, Ken. - Markdown for comment formatting (it has a very simple syntax that's easy to learn) - The new RDiscount gem for converting Markdown into HTML - Look at a whitelist plugin for limiting HTML to certain tags
In other words, people could write blog entries and comments using Markdown. The text is saved in Markdown, and then converted to HTML in your views. By using a whitelist, you could then limit the final HTML output to only a few tags (strong, em, links, etc.). Anything else will be sanitized and/or removed. -- Patrick --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ SD Ruby mailing list [email protected] http://groups.google.com/group/sdruby -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
