Looking a bit closer at what you’re trying to do, we don’t want to change that file anyway. Open edittask.php and find $c = convertFormattedData($c);

Below that, add $cUp = convertFormattedData($cUp);.

That should escape any characters except the < and the >

do you want me to change in library.php file? i could find ‘convertData’ in that file not historytask.php

following is an extract from library.php file:

function convertData($data)
{
if (get_magic_quotes_gpc() == 1) {
$data = str_replace(’”‘, ‘"’, $data);
$data = str_replace(”, ‘>’, $data);
return($data);
} else {
$data = str_replace(’”‘, ‘"’, $data);
$data = str_replace(”, ‘>’, $data);
$data = addslashes($data);
return($data);
}
}

Search for the call to ‘convertData’ in the file where you added the toolbar and change it to ‘convertFormattedData’ and it will escape problem characters without escaping the < and the >.

Let me know if that doesn’t work.

i need a small help from you,

what i meant is that it display the code

[b]Hello![/b]

please consider [] brackets as for understanding.

The editor is excellent and is fitted well too. but when you submit since you know that the html coding gets saved in database. now when this is displayed in task description it displays all html code, instead of formatting html code, for eg:

if following is used:
Hello!

it will display as
Hello! instead of making Hello! as bold.

do you know why this is happening?

Did you notice any JS errors? Without having checked, I’m thinking there might be a conflict with some javascript the NetOffice is already using.
