How HTML Purified works
HTML Purified replaces the default WordPress comments filters with HTML Purifier, a super HTML filtering
library.
HTML Purifier is a standards-compliant HTML filter library written in PHP. HTML Purifier will
not only remove all malicious code (better known as XSS) with a thoroughly audited, secure yet
permissive whitelist, it will also make sure your documents are standards compliant, something
only achievable with a comprehensive knowledge of W3C’s specifications.
An additional feature of HTML Purifier is that it will produce valid well-formed XHTML code, something
which KSES does not do.
Features:
Configurable KSES or HTML Purifier
Configurable list of HTML elements and attributes for both KSES and HTML purifier
Additionally process comments with HTML Tidy
URL blacklist
Fully localized (and awaiting translations)
Automatically escape PHP or anything inside backticks
HTML Purifier is available in:
