Security vs. Functionality

April 6th, 2005 by Keith

I’ve been trying to decide whether or not to implement some “security” measures in Chromium Blog Project. The three that are causing me the most grief in terms of a decision are:

  • Allowing HTML in Posts
  • Allowing Anonymous comments/responses
  • Putting some sort of image in to restrict automated account creation & logins

Right now, I’m coming down on the side of putting in place an HTML editing tool like FCKEditor for the Post/Comment editor. This would allow full formatting, and I could strip out

script tags and the like… If anyone has any thoughts on the Security v. Functionality debate, I’d love to hear them…

…back to the vortex…
