Thread:Extension talk:Foxway/I like this idea, but.../reply

Hi, thanks for the feedback! Why are you concerned about the security with this extension? This extension does not allows run php code! It works the same way as other extensions like Extension:ParserFunctions, but instead of using wiki syntax, uses the syntax of PHP.

I try to make sure that the output of this extension was very similar to the output of PHP. I use own PHP interpreter and never use direct run custom code in PHP interpreter installed on your computer.

Extension:Widget allows the creation of raw HTML pages. Therefore, for safety reasons, are allowed to use this extension is just to name space with limited access. Foxway does not allow creation of raw HTML pages, because MediaWiki parser processes the foxway outputs like any other text.

In any case, I will add the ability to specify the namespaces, which enable the extension foxway.
