Bug #89161
Updated by Elias Häußler about 5 years ago
h2. Problem
When applying a record provided by the Suggest wizard within a database field of type=group, HTML gets applied together with the shortened label (if the record title is too long and gets shortened).
This happens because the Suggest wizard provides prepared labels. If a record is longer than the maximum length defined in the backend user settings, the label will be wrapped within a @<span>@ element. As the label is applied as @<option>@ within the appropriate @<select>@ field of the database field in the form, the plain HTML will be printed.
h2. Repro
1. Create a page with a long page title
2. Go to any page and search in field "content_from_pid" for the page
3. Apply the suggestion from Suggest wizard
4. The <select> should now contain something like @<span title="This is a pretty long page title which was created for testing only">This is a pretty long page...</span>@
h2. Expected behaviour
The @<select>@ should contain an option with content "This is a pretty long page..." only.
Problem could be reproduced with TYPO3 9.5 and current master (not tested with 8.7).
