"generate report" error when ampersand is in client name
January 07, 2012, 03:04:36 am
I'm getting an error:

Code: [Select]
warning: DOMDocument::loadXML() [<a href='domdocument.loadxml'>domdocument.loadxml</a>]: xmlParseEntityRef: no name in Entity, line: 3 in /civicrm/sites/all/modules/civicrm/CRM/Case/Audit/Audit.php on line 24.
when i try to "generate report" on any case where the client (not sure about others involved) has an ampersand in its name (x & x)

this might be related - http://issues.civicrm.org/jira/browse/CRM-6541 but i'm not sure exactly what was done to solve the issue..

any ideas?

using v3.4.5

thanks,
david

Can you try changing line 28 in templates/CRM/Case/XMLProcessor/Report.tpl from

Code: [Select]
<Client>{$case.clientName}</Client>
to

Code: [Select]
<Client>{$case.clientName|escape}</Client>
and see if that fixes it?
