Description asmotrich 2007-12-04 20:36:42 UTC

It used to be possible to manually add the plugin portal in the IDE using the following URL http://plugins.netbeans.org/nbpluginportal/files/nbms/pluginportal-update-center.xml. However, the most recent version of this file contains unquoted 
ampersand (&) characters in two places in the plugin names and that breaks the XML parsing of the catalog file. Just look at the following attributes on 
lines 630 and 1058 of the file dated Dec 4: OpenIDE-Module-Display-Category="Web & Java EE".

Comment 1 David Botterill 2007-12-04 23:41:52 UTC

Fixed.  I had code to clean up different elements but I had not ran the display category through the method.  I changed
this to do so.
