 Description  « Hide
Copying and pasting into JIRA allows pasting of values below hex 32 other than the permitted values. When output in the RSS feed these are escaped with their appropriate values e.g.  but this is invalid in XML as it is not permitted as a unicode character. It makes my XML parser (MSXML 2.0) fall over with the message "Invalid UNICODE Character" when parsing the XML version of the issue in RSS.

John,

Which version of JIRA are you working with? Recent versions will strip invalid characters before they are inserted into the database.

Cheers,
Jeff

Sorry for the delay in responding, everyone. The version in use here at Lehman Bros is Enterprise Edition, Version: 3.2.3-#91. I will follow up with support here. Thanks for your help.

Hi,

The Atlassian team is doing some housekeeping. We are closing this support issue due to long period of inactivity.

If you feel this issue is still outstanding, please re-open and comment on it.
