Creating a new board without description

I just noticed when creating a new board without a description I get this as default description:

Code: [Select]
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN" "[url=http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/loose.dtd]http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/loose.dtd[/url]">

<?xml encoding="UTF-8">

Editing the board and adding a description solves the problem.

Maybe I should open a new topic for this, but I'll post it here since it's reated to board description.
If I do a "View page source" from my browser I noticed that the meta title and meta description are the same. This is happening on 1.1.9 and not on 2.0 dev version.

Confirmed:

Code: [Select]
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/loose.dtd">

Good find, @radu81

I'll take a look and see if I can correct that in 1.1.10  :cool:

All fixed on my local, it will be in 1.1.10

The system allows you to use HTML in the board description, and it converts that to BBC.  The version of the converter on 1.1.x is not as robust as we have in 2.x (I rewrote that, so I'm glad it worked there :D ) and left some cruft behind !
