[Archivesspace_Users_Group] Missing text from between HMTL tags in Public Interface

[Custer, Mark]

Kari,

Although I know that this doesn’t help right now, I can assure you that this sort of behavior has been fixed in the new public interface, which is due out next year (this year if you count the candidate release that’s scheduled to come out in early December)…  assuming that you’re talking about EAD elements and not HTML elements.

For instance, the following is HTML with mixed-content:

<ruby>
  明日 <rp>(</rp><rt>Ashita</rt><rp>)</rp>
</ruby>

ASpace won’t know what to do with that (and it shouldn’t be in an EAD finding aid, at least not with the current EAD specification), but if it were in ASpace then I’d argue that the best thing that could happen would be for all of the text to display to the public minus those three elements.

I can’t see the pictures that you added to the email (see the postscript below), but I assume that you are talking about mixed-content of EAD elements since you mention the <title> tag, like so:

This is text from a unittitle, and it has a <title>Title</title> and a <corpname>Corpname</corpname> in it.

(HTML also has a title element, but it only occurs in the HTML head element, which is rendered as the page name, search result title, and stuff like that…  i.e. not stuff in the body of the page)

And if that’s the case, the new public interface will display it as expected without any of the EAD tags visible.

Mark

p.s. the pictures didn’t seem to come through in my email, but I’m well aware of how mixed-content is handled on both the staff and public side of ASpace, so I think that I can still “see” exactly what you’re talking about :)

Hello all,

have you seen this behavior and have suggestions on how to fix it?  Because there are 4 different ways the data is being rendered in different parts of the interface (staff and public) we are curious as to how to proceed. The behavior in the Public view is the most worrisome because the text disappears altogether.

Thank you for suggestions.



Issues with Components

1.   When viewing a component with a <title> tag in it to modify the display, the tag appears as part of the title text. This title displays the same in both the public and staff view. See below:

It does not appear as part of the title in the component list from the staff view: [Picture 2]



>From the public view of the component list, text between these tags disappears entirely
