Summary: referring to global variables in messages
Product: MediaWiki extensions
Version: any
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: Normal
Component: UploadWizard
AssignedTo: [email protected]
ReportedBy: [email protected]
CC: [email protected]
For the tooltips in UploadWizard, in one case we now have a global variable
encoded in the message:
'mwe-upwiz-tooltip-title' => 'A short unique title for the file. You may use
plain language with spaces. Do not include the file extension. <a
target="_blank" onclick="\\$titleDialog.dialog(\'open\');return false;"
href="#">Learn more</a>.',
This is obviously nasty because
- global variable!
- it's in a message!
This sort of thing shouldn't be necessary -- it's happening for two reasons.
- as a way of hacking in a link with JS behaviour into a message -- this is
easy to do with the new .msg() feature, though
- tipsy.js relies only on info shoved into the "title" attr, which has to be a
string. If it retrieved info from .data() we wouldn't have that limitation.
