[Gmod-ajax] JBrowse not processing html tags and links in track info

[Vaneet L. <van...@uc...>]

Hello,

Since I've upgraded to JBrowse v1.16.1, I've noticed that the metadata I've added to the 'About this track' pop up box is not fully processed in terms of the html tags I've added for external links (<a href>) and line breaks (<br>).  I added the info via this configuration block:

         "metadata" : {
            "Info" :
},

I added the 'Info' field so it's displayed in the 'About this track' box.  So after upgrading to this JBrowse version the html tags are displayed as is as free text, but before they were actually processed as line breaks and hyperlinks.  Can anyone help explain why the html is not processed anymore in the trackList.json file?

Thanks,

Vaneet
