  • Html not escaped in novels when using the mobile app

Hello,

When i read novels on the mobile app, i keep seeing HTML as " instead of "*.
I noticed it when reading
Library of Heaven's Path**.
Does anyone have this problem ?

    The same double-quoted   entities are shown on the desktop site, both in story titles and story content.

      @mikaelhg There are some problems happened in dealing with the raw translation of the translators. " " stands for space in html language. In our rich editor for translators, it shows as a space. So they won't find the problem. However, in our webnovel site, for security of our users, it shows as " " to avoid XSS (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cross-site_scripting) attack. It's a little bit hard to understand for non-computer-science background people. But you don't need to, our enginneer is parsing the " " and some other html symbols out of the content to supply a better experience. Thank you for your feedback.

        @mikaelhg It's a bit too late, but I have to say that the   problem is solved in pc and mobile site version of webnovel.com. If there is any problem with it, please tell us. Thanks.

          dapenggaofei I use the app and I see it in recent chapters of Adorable food goddess, A billion stars cant amount to you, He's the one and Perfect secret love.

            QueenCL Indeed, app currently doesn't fix all these issues. Our app developers is locating and fixing this. Thanks for your feedback.
