Description

Whenever you try to access the authors by using their name:

http://www.example.com/quotes/author/Silly Billy

and that author does not exist, you get a list with all the authors to select from.

That is okay, but what is not is that if the name actually includes HTML or simply is very super long, the box becomes very wide (wider than any screens I know of!)

All that to say that you need to limit the label and clean up the HTML.

Okay, I just made these changes:

  • Limit maximum length in authors list; use filter_xss to make safe.
  • Better handling of unknown authors.
  • Delete the author if this is the last quote using it.
