In some cases it would be helpful to show some formatted description text before the catalog list (eg: headers, lists, links). To allow html code in description-text you just have to change 4 files:
Code:
/joomlaroot/jupgrade/components/com_joodb/views/catalog/tmpl/default.php
/joomlaroot/jupgrade/components/com_joodb/views/catalog/tmpl/default.xml
/joomlaroot/jupgrade/components/com_joodb/views/catalog/tmpl/notepad.php
/joomlaroot/jupgrade/components/com_joodb/views/catalog/tmpl/notepad.xml
In both xml-files you have to add the filter="safehtml" attribute to the description parameter field:
Code:
<field name="description" type="textarea" filter="safehtml"
default="" label="Intro text" rows="5" cols="30" description="Intro on first page"/>
in both php files you have to cut the nl2br command:
Code:
<?php echo nl2br($this->params->get('description')); ?>
to
<?php echo $this->params->get('description'); ?>
Maybe in a further release there is an option in the menuparameters to allow / disallow html in description?
