Bug: Filter form fields for illegal characters
In view, forms get rendered as tables. Thus linebreaks and vertical bars are not allowed. Currently,lib/TWiki/Render.pm replaces line breaks (but not all) by <br />, but does not handle vertical bars. Forms break if they contain such.

Thanks for the patch... DevelopBranch has moved on so much that TWikiRelease02Sep2004 is very old. I question whether the patch can still be relevant... -- MartinCleaver - 18 Feb 2005 This fix is found also in Dakar SVN (not clear what label introduced it). -- ThomasWeigert - 01 May 2005Fix record
