Hi,
I am migrating an application written in Adobe Coldfusion to Lucee, and I was using XMLFormat. This function encoded special characters such as accents (àéêôî). On Lucee, XMLFormat does not encode accents, but EncodeForXML does.
I know it is now better to use EncodeForXML, but I was wondering if it was a normal behavior that XMLFormat does not return the same result? Should I report a bug or is it not worth it given that XMLFormat is deprecated?
Examples
#EncodeForXML("École àéêôî")# <!--- Return École àéêôî --->
#XMLFormat("École àéêôî")# <!--- Return École àéêôî --->
For now I will try to overwrite the XMLFormat function with my own XMLFormat tag that will use EncodeForXML behind the scene. I need to keep my application cross-compatible for the moment.
Thank you!
