Code change:
Since copy+pasting our code makes it too easy for people to XSS themselves, lets just add a comment in there about it.
PR at - let me know if that's what you had in mind!
My intuition is that it makes more sense to fix the example (call a sanitization library) or to change the example completely (demonstrate something else that is safer). It looks really bad to have a security warning on the homepage of the react site. Makes it seem like our framework encourages unsafe operations, rather than a safe-by-default way of doing things.
Should switch the demo to use a different library like markdown-js that escapes everything and doesn't support HTML:
markdown-js looks good. First attempt: ,output Code licensed if someone wants to turn this into a coherent example; I've signed the CLA.
That's a good suggestion too :) - what are your thoughts? I'm happy to change the example to use like people have suggested above. nice usage example :+1:
Uh yea, that sounds fine to me. This behavior is definitely non-standard markdown but it's an example so not a big deal. We should probably do the same for the tutorial while we're here. And it's on cdnjs so that's all pretty easy:
Just going to use marked instead, which I'm already familiar with and has an option to sanitize input.

It's hard to read and // maintain this way,  but keeping Showdown close to the original // design makes it easier to port new features. // // More importantly, Showdown behaves like markdown.pl in most // edge cases.  So web applications can do client-side preview // in Javascript, and then build identical HTML on the server. // // This port needs the new RegExp functionality of ECMA 262, // 3rd Edition (i.e. Javascript 1.5).  Most modern web browsers // should do fine.  Even with the new regular expression features, // We do a lot of work to emulate Perl's regex functionality. // The tricky changes in this file mostly have the "attacklab:" // label.
