Round-trips after entering image markup with width parameter (with quoted value) along with a page rename causes INVALID_CHARACTER_ERR error

XMLWordPrintable

      Steps to reproduce
      1. First attach an image to a new Confluence page
      2. Next, create the following markup in the page:
        !spaceKey:PageTitle^ImageName.gif|width="606"!
        

        Screenshot

      3. The image will be displayed as usual
      4. However, when you edit the page again and do some roundtrips (Wiki-markup -> Rich Text editor), the Wiki Markup becomes:
        !spaceKey:PageTitle^ImageName.gif|width=606"606"!
        

        Screenshot

      5. More round-trips causes more duplicate values for the width parameter:
        !spaceKey:PageTitle^ImageName.gif|width=606"606""606""606"!
        
      6. At this point, you are still allowed to edit and save the page.
      7. However, when there's a page title change, you are not allowed to save the page anymore. You will get an Oops page with the following error:
        org.w3c.dom.DOMException: INVALID_CHARACTER_ERR: An invalid or illegal XML character is specified.
            at org.apache.xerces.dom.CoreDocumentImpl.createAttribute(Unknown Source) 
        
      8. You are also not allowed to switch to Wiki Markup editor to fix the markup.

      Workaround
      1. Don't use the quotes for the value. For example:
        !spaceKey:PageTitle^ImageName.gif|width=606!
