Hi Ruth,

I believe this is the standard Ofbiz validation of incoming parameters to a
service.  It appears this is used when the incoming parameter has been
marked as to allow only "safe" html.  The implementation makes use of the
DefaultValidator below and can be configured by changing the a xml file. 
Here is the comment in the code:

Based on the ESAPI validator configured in the antisamy-esapi.xml file.

So from this I would gauge that you had put something in your screen and
then clicked to post that information to the sever.  One of the fields from
your form post contains some characters that the validator deemed to not be
"safe".  This type of stuff is usually to guard against sql injection and
such ... My guess is that you pasted some html into a textarea and tried to
do a save?
