Hi,

Recently, with 3.1.2, if I edit a component and click on the save button, I am being taking to /admin/components.php page but it's showing up as a 404.

Here's a smaple of what I'd like to add in a component:

Code:
<p>
    <a href="http://a.url">
    <img alt="" src="linkedin.png" style="width: 64px; height: 64px; float: left;" />
    </a> &nbsp; <strong>LinkedIn</strong>
</p>

That doesn't work, I always get to the 404 page.

If I simplify and use this:

Code:
<li><img alt="" src="flickr_32.png"/> <a href="http://another.url">flickr</a></li>

No issues.

Debug mode doesn't show me any reason for the error - it's blank. Log files are also empty.

Am I missing something obvious?
Probably mod security on your server blocking it.

Or xss protection on your browser.
Hi Shawn,

Thanks for the reply.

In terms of mod security on the server, how would I check that? And what would be the ideal setting?

I'll try and find the xss setting in FF15.

Hi Shawn,

Wasn't able to find anything I could disable in FF15, so really hoping you can point me in the right direction about mod security (so that I can speak to my hosts).

Cheers,

Had a chat with my hosting company this evening.

They had to whitelist mod_securty rule 340149.

Once that was in place, no more issues.
That must be the one that detects script injections.
I have to turn mode sec off for my posts also, but i use a htaccess to do it based on certain rules.
