Firefox 3.6 breaks box embed codes

#161

Firefox 3.6 changes box embedding code from this:

<xt:box name="sitellite/nav/list" title="sitellite/nav/list" style="word-wrap: break-word; display: list-item; list-style-type: none; border: 0px none; background-image: url("/inc/app/xed/pix/box-bg.jpg"); background-repeat: no-repeat; width: 528px; height: 63px; font-weight: normal; padding: 23px 10px 0px 85px; margin: 5px;">sitellite/nav/list</xt:box>

To this:

<xt:box style="word-wrap: break-word; display: list-item; list-style-type: none; border: 0px none;" title="sitellite/nav/list" name="sitellite/nav/list"></xt:box>
inc/app/xed/pix/box-bg.jpg"); background-repeat: no-repeat; width: 528px; height: 63px; font-weight: normal; padding: 23px 10px 0px 85px; margin: 5px;">sitellite/nav/list

The result is that the box still embeds, but some of the code is displayed in the page as well. The cause appears to be related to the background-image attribute.

    There are 2 fixes in the codebase now for this. #1 Use cURL as alternative to allow_url_fopen in installer fixes new embedded boxes so they don't have the same problem. See inc/app/xed/js/xed*.js for that. #2 Wrong character encoding in email messages fixes existing embedded boxes, so Firefox 3.6+ doesn't munge them. That fix is found in upgrade/5.0.2-5.0.3.sql.
