Character issue when creating status reports, updating ideas, etc, where special characters such as \r\n \\r\\n1, \\r\\n2, \\r\\n3 appear. Example field where users may see the issue is in the Key Accomplishments field or a Comments field in an Idea.
It happens if there is a parenthesis with certain key words. If you remove the parenthesis, the issue goes away.
Steps to Reproduce
Some text. Confirm (something else).
Expected Results: The text is saved as it was copied or typed.
Actual Results: Special characters will appear. The text will look like this: Some text.\r\nConfirm (something else).
This was reported as DE45234 and it is not a defect. The text contains the JavaScript function "confirm (any string here)" to display the confirmation message box, which Clarity escapes to avoid potential XSS attacks.
You will see the same for the following keywords:
(retrieval | alert | eval | expression | prompt | confirm)[\r\n\s]*\((.*?)\)
Refrain from using this type of strings in text fields.
