    Purple clockwork gears

    Finally, we use the gem Sanitize to clean up this XHTML and take out anything that is legal but not necessarily safe.

    Are we to assume that the list:
    a, abbr, acronym, address, [alt], b, big, blockquote, br, caption, center, cite, [class], code, col, colgroup, datetime, dd, del, dfn, div, dl, dt, em, h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6, [height], hr, [href], i, img, ins, kbd, li, name, ol, p, pre, q, samp, small, span, [src], strike, strong, sub, sup, table, tbody, td, tfoot, th, thead, [title], tr, tt, u, ul, var, [width]
    is still up to date? Also, what's the code string to embed video?

      Yep, the list of allowed html is still up-to-date, with the exception of the embed code. And the code string to embed video is just whatever those allowed sites offer you as a copy & paste for embed - the exact code is always quite long and complex, so we haven't figured out a succinct way to put it into the allowed list yet.
