DefaultBreadcrumbsManager generates invalid HTML

XMLWordPrintable

      One customer has reported a bug in the source code of Confluence 2.5.1

      The source code at lines 67-69 in the confluence/src/java/com/atlassian/confluence/pages/DefaultBreadcrumbsManager.java
      contains an extra closing tag which generates invalid HTML.

      -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
breadcrumb = "<span id=\"breadcrumbs\"><span id=\"breadcrumbsEllipsis\"/><a href=\"#\" onclick=\"showBreadcrumbsEllipsis();return false;\" title=\"" +
  getTextBreadcrumbs(getHiddenAncestors(page)) + "\">...</a></span><span id=\"breadcrumbsExpansion\" style=\"display:none;\">" +
  expandEllipsisForPage(page, request) + "</span>" + BREADCRUMB_DELIMITER + "</span>";
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

      After breaking down the source:
      -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

      <span id="breadcrumbs">
   <span id="breadcrumbsEllipsis"/>
   <a href="#" onclick="showBreadcrumbsEllipsis();return false;" title="XXXX">...</a>
</span>
<span id="breadcrumbsExpansion" style="display:none;"><a href='YYYYY'>YYYY</a></span> &gt; 
</span>

      -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

      Here we notice that there is an extra closing tag in the line: <span id="breadcrumbsEllipsis"/>

      Thanks
      Arman
