Excel File - can HTML Purifier check this too?
February 29, 2012 02:15PM

If data is extracted from an excel file, can HTML purifier be used to scan this data too?

If anyone has any example code, would you mind posting it?

Thanks :)

No, it cannot.

Is this because php does not extract the raw data from a multipart upload?

PERL

I've read that maybe Perl can extract raw data from a multipart using read_multipart()

If yes (looking into this), then what if a perl script first extracted the raw data? I'm assuming that it could then be sent to HTML purifier?

Thanks

If you extract something from Excel which looks like HTML, then HTML Purifier can handle it. But HTML Purifier knows nothing about Excel, it has nothing to do with language choice.
