Something other than the Link Checker that would modify markup?

[Joel_Triemstra1]

Is there a service other than the Link Checker that would modify href attributes in markup?

I have a servlet that returns some json data. Part of that data is a string representing a Handlebars template, which includes a section (after escaping) like <a href=\'{{{this.url}}}\'><img src=... . This is getting rewritten somewhere along the way to <a href="\"><img src='{{{this.url}}}'

I have tried configuring the Day CQ Link Checker Transformer to Disable Rewriting and Disable Checking; I have removed "a:href" from the list of elements to rewrite; I have tried adding "\" and "{" to the Special Link Prefixes option in the Day CQ Link Checker Service configuration. None of these are having any effect. So, I'm thinking maybe there's some other service that's detecting that <a href=\'{{{this.url}}}\'> is not valid markup and fixing it for me, but I'm not finding any obvious candidates for that.

XSS might be another one you can check.

Hi Joel Triemstra

Option 1

Using OSGI as a service can also be one of the way. Where you could write a logic to create dynamic links and can use then in JSP scripts.

Link:-  https://helpx.adobe.com/experience-manager/using/creating-link-rewrite.html (this link will help you to understand the above stated, but you need to modify the logic of OSGi as per your requirement).

Option 2

Use Sightly

we can store information in JCR nodes and then can use them in JSP using Sightly

I hope this would help you.

Thanks and Regards
