In 2.2 it used to be possible to set allowHTML = true and still use
{{{
<some-html-tag>
} }}
etc. to get preformatted html to be shown.
In 2.4, once allowHTML = true, the < and > characters are no longer written as < and > within three braces, thus it is no longer possible to use verbatim html/xml.
As a workaround, you can use <pre>...</pre>
As a workaround, the <pre> is no good because <h1>FOO</h1> is still interpreted. Use <xmp>...</xmp> instead.
This bug should be a CriticalBug because existing wikis are broken and the documentation (jspwiki.props) is very clear on this :
Text between { { { and } } } -options is not affected by this setting, so it's always safe to quote HTML code with those.
