             Bug #: 34322
           Summary: #tag returns junk in front of its displayed value
           Product: MediaWiki
           Version: 1.18.1
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: major
          Priority: Unprioritized
         Component: Parser
        AssignedTo: [email protected]
        ReportedBy: [email protected]
    Classification: Unclassified


Define a simple parser tag extension <junk> that returns "abcde":

<?php
$wgHooks['ParserFirstCallInit'][] = 'efJunk';
function efJunk(&$parser) {
  $parser->setHook('junk', 'efJunkCallback');
  return true;
}
function efJunkCallback($input, $args, $parser, $frame) {
  return 'abcde';
}

When displayed in the wiki, it seems to work fine:

{{#tag:junk}}
==> abcde

But when the value is passed to other parser functions, it breaks:

{{#len:{{#tag:junk}}}}
==> 1

{{#ifeq:{{#tag:junk}}|abcde|yes|no}}
==> no

Since the value display correctly, I hypothesize that {{#tag:junk}} is
returning a 1-character, null-terminated string in front of "abcde".
