    Hi Allen

    1. So do i need to fix in both places? (the table js and the php server side).
    2. I didn't understand completely where do i get the token..
    3. how should my server side should use the xss() method?
      example:
    $this->editor_instance->fields(Field::inst("users.link"));
    

    thanks

    Answer ✓
    $this->editor_instance->fields(Field::inst("users.link")->xss(false));
    

    Make sure you understand that it is potentially open to an XSS attack then. Use the information here to make sure that HTML is not rendered on the client-side (unless you want that).
