At work we developed a secure WYSIWYG editor. I built the backend HTML5 sanitizer based on whitelisting. It supports multiple profiles (feature sets) and uses XML::LibXML. The frontend part shares the same feature sets with the backend.
The talk will concentrate on the backend HTML sanitizer, but I will demonstrate the WYSIWYG frontend too.
