I use Joomla v2.5.14, EasyBlog v3.9.15245, BestShop template from Themeforest, JCE Editor and TinyMCE editors. The website is still on my PC and not live.

The "object" attibute changes "o-bject" to when I save a message with the following code:

<object data="images/stories/MP3PlayerCustom/player_mp3_maxi.swf" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" height="20" width="740"><param name="movie" value="images/stories/MP3PlayerCustom/player_mp3_maxi.swf"><param name="bgcolor" value="#ffffff"><param name="FlashVars" value="mp3=images/stories/2013Dec/ProgPsyTranceMix.mp3&width=740&showstop=1&showinfo=1&showvolume=1&loadingcolor=ffe800&bgcolor1=ee0000&bgcolor2=cc0000&slidercolor1=ff0000&slidercolor2=bb0000&sliderovercolor=ffe800&buttonovercolor=ffe800"></object>


Once posted, the above code appears as follow;

<o-bject data="images/stories/MP3PlayerCustom/player_mp3_maxi.swf" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" height="20" width="740"><param name="movie" value="images/stories/MP3PlayerCustom/player_mp3_maxi.swf"><param name="bgcolor" value="#ffffff"><param name="FlashVars" value="mp3=images/stories/2013Dec/ProgPsyTranceMix.mp3&width=740&showstop=1&showinfo=1&showvolume=1&loadingcolor=ffe800&bgcolor1=ee0000&bgcolor2=cc0000&slidercolor1=ff0000&slidercolor2=bb0000&sliderovercolor=ffe800&buttonovercolor=ffe800"></object>


Please help.
Hm, this is odd. Perhaps there are some plugins that are doing any string replacements? I can't really tell unless I debug this on the site.

I understand.
I will upload the site within the next couple of days and then revert back to you in this thread.

Hello Mark

I have now uploaded the website and created an admin account for you.

Website: Website Admin
User: ***
Pass: ***

FTP login details
Host: Host Address
User: ***
Pass: ***


Example 1: Tables spacing badly wrong .
Webpage
Admin page

Example 2: No video - "iframe" tag changes to "i-frame".
Webpage
Admin page

Example 3: No MP3 player - "object" tag changes to "o-bject".
Webpage
Admin page


I will be grateful if you will have a look and resolve these problems.
Regards
Wiets

Hello Wiets,

I am sorry for the delay of this reply. After a very thorough search, the problem seems to be caused by RSFirewall's plugin. After turning this plugin off, it works fine as the "object" is retained as it is. I believe RSFirewall is modifying the "POSTED" data when a data is submitted on the site.

Thank you Mark! I saw the results of your test messages.
It is a pity but it seems like I will have to disable RSFirewall.
Perhaps you guys want to make the folks at RSFirewall aware of this issue.

Hello Wiets,

It's not a conflict specifically with RSFirewall but anything that is submitted on the site with obj will get changed to o-bj . You can actually try this by creating a username with obj and try logging in You will never be able to login.

To be honest, it's best that you as a customer log this with them as you are a priority to them not us
