Description see’s code…

Apr 04, 2009 11:48am Viper_iii Total Posts: 15	Was using an example for a user in their invoice and found the following entered the path… start > run > \\server\netlogon\file.vbs The returned text was this `start > run > \\server etlogon\file.vbs` saw the “\n” as a carriage return

Apr 05, 2009 11:51am Viper_iii Total Posts: 15	Okay… Creating an invoice… First line. qty= 1 Text description area of the charge = Update server… if problem happens again type this mr. customer “\\server\netlogon\logon.vbs” this will fix the issue. Amount per hour = 100 The text decribing the charge. I enter the above and when I save the charge on that invoice it get the the above. Here is the process! start a new invoice put what ever qty value you want in the description of work performed paste this line into it: Update server… if problem happens again type this mr. customer “\\server\netlogon\logon.vbs” this will fix the issue. Place what ever $$‘s to it that you like HIT SAVE Invoice. This line gets read as code not just a text box: \\server\netlogon\logon.vbs and then breaks at the \n as if it were code. example /n

Apr 05, 2009 04:28pm SteveF Total Posts: 41	If you create a invoice item line with a work description that has a string literal ‘\n’ in the text e.g. \\server\new\test this is saved differently. I assume that the same would happen with a \t embedded as well.

Apr 05, 2009 05:51pm Viper_iii Total Posts: 15	take a second look at your test… \n caused a carriage return… What you got `1.00 Update server… if problem happens again type this mr. customer "\\server etlogon\logon.vbs" this will fix the issue. €100.00 (Not Taxable) €100.00` What you should have gotten `1.00 Update server… if problem happens again type this mr. customer "\\server\netlogon\logon.vbs" this will fix the issue. €100.00 (Not Taxable) €100.00`

I assume that the same would happen with a \t embedded as well. Exactly ... its the regex expressions being accepted in the text / description fields. I just know it caused this issue for me but other than that its a minor not major bug. Just have to look closely to see what its actually doing. the test Derek Did shows the exact same bug for me…

Apr 05, 2009 07:35pm Derek Allard Total Posts: 2339	I see. its from view.php `<td><?php echo auto_typography(str_replace(array('\n', '\r'), "\n", $item->work_description));?></td>` If you want, you canmake it `<td><?php echo auto_typography($item->work_description);?></td>` But there was a specific reason why I had that in there, although it escapes me at the moment. You may need to make the same change in pdf.php
