My b2evolution Version: Not Entered

Hi,
I am newbie in 2bevo. In the _formatting.php file I wonder what means exactly the sentence about security_checker:

Security checking will check for illegal javascript hacks in posts/comments and for CSS in comments. However, this may be a bit harsh on your posts

Precisely what implies "a bit harsh" expression? By default security_checker is off, but is it not necessary to put it on to avoid what is mentioned (illegal javascript hacks...)?

And so what are the consequencies to put it on?

Thanks.

Hi dorjee,

If you read on it says something like: you are in great danger if you turn off both the html checker and the security checker.
If you want to understand this, think of a blog with a lot of bloggers, like a schoolclass with nasty pupils that will do anyting to ruin your blog. Compare this with a single person blog who wnats to get the most out of possibilities with ajax, javascript and html. The latter knows there is no security issue and will give himself all the possibilities the blog allows.

Have fun
