One workaround was to comment out this chunk of script. Another one was to revert back to Zope 2.7.1. :-)

And still another is to split your string literals where they look like markup, because even CDATA marked sections aren't meant to protect you from everything. Try changing the line with the </a> to href="enabling_cookies">How to enable cookies<' + '/a>.<' + '/div>'); and the problem should go away.

I have no idea if this is Zope tightening up and rejecting an incorrect Plone template, or an introduced bug in Zope which is rejecting a correct Plone template.

This is Zope no longer duplicating a module from Python's standard library, and the Python module is slightly stricter than the version previously in Zope. I consider this a bug in Plone's template, and it can be trivially fixed there. It is unfortunate that the looser version of the HTMLParser module was used for so long; that was an oversight on my part. It should have been removed from Zope 2 the minute we required Python 2.3.x. This is *not* related to the recent hotfix, as Andreas Kaiser suggests. The issues related to that were all related to the hotfix product being loaded after some templates were compiled. -Fred -- Fred L. Drake, Jr. <fdrake at gmail.com> Zope Corporation
