Security Question

How do I keep people from embedding information into an input element.

Hi Ray,

What sort of information are you concerned about?

Wix Code doesn’t have the same security issues as a “classic” website (e.g. PHP/mySQL) would have. Wix Code is “sandboxed”, preventing side-effects of potentially malicious HTML/Javascript. Even the HtmlComponent , which allows custom HTML/Javascript code to be added to a Wix site, is sandboxed, which prevents unwanted side-effects.

I hope this helps.

I have multiple types of inputs, what I want is a method to make sure a hacker is not inputting embedded information. I seem to have more people worrying about security of their information, which they should. The site is a genealogy type site. I’m trying to make as much as possible a one time input of data and just manipulating the data after that.

As I mentioned in my previous post, Wix Code is sandboxed and therefore is not subject to the same vulnerabilities as other sites. Even if a user embedded HTML/Javascript code in the input, that code would not be able to run do to the limitations imposed by the Wix Code environment.

Thanks I appreciate the information I’ll pass it alone.
