[Archivesspace_Users_Group] Invalid EAD export

Mon Sep 14 11:15:08 EDT 2015

Hello --

It appears that if the first word or phrase in any of the "notes" elements
that contain a text block and support mixed content, like abstract,
bioghist or scopecontent is wrapped in a persname, the EAD export is
invalid as all paragraphs lack p element wrappers.

I've tested this with other elements to start the first paragraph and
persname to start the second paragraph and those do not cause problems,
only persname to start the first paragraph.

Example bioghist EAD prior to import:

<bioghist encodinganalog="545">-<persname>Francis Steiner</persname>was
born January 16, 1895 in New Jersey, to German parents. He was the oldest
of three children.A communist and conscientious objector [etc.]
There is no information regarding Francis Steiner after his last
letter of November 7, 1920. </bioghist>

Example bioghist EAD after export:

<bioghist id="aspace_6e16003b2d18f8ad6c487cd5712fc162"><head>Biographical /
Historical</head><persname>Francis Steiner</persname>was born January 16,
1895 in New Jersey, to German parents. He was the oldest of three children.
A communist and conscientious objector [etc.] There is no information
regarding Francis Steiner after his last letter of November 7, 1920.
