But with power comes great -responsibility, in the form of longer execution times. Remember, this -library isn't lightly grazing over submitted HTML: it's deconstructing -the whole thing, rigorously checking the parts, and then putting it back -together. </p> - -<p>So, if it so turns out that HTML Purifier is kinda too slow for outbound -filtering, you've got a few options: </p> - -<h2>Inbound filtering</h2> - -<p>Perform filtering of HTML when it's submitted by the user. Since the -user is already submitting something, an extra half a second tacked on -to the load time probably isn't going to be that huge of a problem. -Then, displaying the content is a simple a manner of outputting it -directly from your database/filesystem. The trouble with this method is -that your user loses the original text, and when doing edits, will be -handling the filtered text. While this may be a good thing, especially -if you're using a WYSIWYG editor, it can also result in data-loss if a -user makes a typo. </p> - -<p>Example (non-functional):</p> - -<pre><?php - /** - * FORM SUBMISSION PAGE - * display_error($message) : displays nice error page with message - * display_success() : displays a nice success page - * display_form() : displays the HTML submission form - * database_insert($html) : inserts data into database as new row - */ - if (!empty($_POST)) { - require_once '/path/to/library/HTMLPurifier.auto.php'; - require_once 'HTMLPurifier.func.php'; - $dirty_html = isset($_POST['html']) ? $_POST['html'] : false; - if (!$dirty_html) { - display_error('You must write some HTML!'); - } - $html = HTMLPurifier($dirty_html); - database_insert($html); - display_success(); - // notice that $dirty_html is *not* saved - } else { - display_form(); - } -?></pre> - -<h2>Caching the filtered output</h2> - -<p>Accept the submitted text and put it unaltered into the database, but -then also generate a filtered version and stash that in the database. -Serve the filtered version to readers, and the unaltered version to -editors. If need be, you can invalidate the cache and have the cached -filtered version be regenerated on the first page view. Pros? Full data -retention. Cons? It's more complicated, and opens other editors up to -XSS if they are using a WYSIWYG editor (to fix that, they'd have to be -able to get their hands on the *really* original text served in -plaintext mode). </p> - -<p>Example (non-functional):</p> - -<pre><?php - /** - * VIEW PAGE - * display_error($message) : displays nice error page with message - * cache_get($id) : retrieves HTML from fast cache (db or file) - * cache_insert($id, $html) : inserts good HTML into cache system - * database_get($id) : retrieves raw HTML from database - */ - $id = isset($_GET['id']) ? (int) $_GET['id'] : false; - if (!$id) { - display_error('Must specify ID.'); - exit; - } - $html = cache_get($id); // filesystem or database - if ($html === false) { - // cache didn't have the HTML, generate it - $raw_html = database_get($id); - require_once '/path/to/library/HTMLPurifier.auto.php'; - require_once 'HTMLPurifier.func.php'; - $html = HTMLPurifier($raw_html); - cache_insert($id, $html); - } - echo $html; -?></pre> - -<h2>Summary</h2> - -<p>In short, inbound filtering is the simple option and caching is the -robust option (albeit with bigger storage requirements). </p> - -<p>There is a third option, independent of the two we've discussed: profile -and optimize HTMLPurifier yourself. Be sure to report back your results -if you decide to do that! Especially if you port HTML Purifier to C++. -<tt>;-)</tt></p> - -</body> -</html> - -<!-- vim: et sw=4 sts=4 ---> |
