Partial fix XF.alert doesn't handle HTML tags

[stromb0li]

Affected version

2.3

When using XF.alert to display an alert to the client, the text after the first html tag will be discarded.

In XF 2.2, I'd see moo cow (on two lines). In XF 2.3, I only see moo.

const stringArray = ['moo', 'cow'];
XF.alert(stringArray.join('<br/>'));

This seems to work as a workaround:

const stringArray = ['moo', 'cow'];
XF.alert(stringArray.join('\r\n'));

Thank you for reporting this issue, it has now been resolved. We are aiming to include any changes that have been made in a future XF release (2.3.3).

Allow passing HTMLElement objects to alerts

There may be a delay before changes are rolled out to the XenForo Community.
