Well... I don't know about submitted files, but I do know you can usually prevent the grief associated with the special html characters when you embed the text by enclosing it with "<pre>" and "</pre>" (the html pre-formatted tag).
<br><br>I did that when I posted the script section of this Wiki page: <a href="http://www.cmake.org/Wiki/CMake_Useful_Variables/Get_Variables_From_CMake_Dashboards">http://www.cmake.org/Wiki/CMake_Useful_Variables/Get_Variables_From_CMake_Dashboards
</a> ...and it seems to have preserved the special characters as I intended.<br><br>The only thing you have to worry about is if your text includes "</pre>" -- then you have some manual edits.<br><br>I think you can also fool the Wiki into accepting an uploaded text file simply by giving it a ".jpg" extension when uploaded... That's also inconvenient, though.

I've been trying to commit text-based files to the Kitware Wiki such as<br>cmake files and xml material files. Of course, the upload file feature<br>does not let me upload files of these types. I've resorted to embedding
<br>the files in a regular Wiki page. However, this solution is<br>inconvenient for both uploading and downloading the file. It has also<br>been giving me a lot of grief about special html characters like '<',<br>'>', and '&'.
<br><br>Could someone add the file extensions .txt, .cmake, and .xml, as well as<br>any other relevant text types, to the accepted list of Wiki uploads. Or<br>does someone have a better solution?<br><br>-Ken<br><br> **** Kenneth Moreland
