Assignment submission stripped out HTML file contents

Hi,
One of our students created an HTML file to submit as part of an assignment submission. Included in the file were some style elements as well as some input elements. All of these elements were stripped out of the file, and only the text remained - both when viewed directly from the Brightspace marking interface and when downloading the file.
Is this the expected behaviour? (I can see how it might be intentional, to protect the system from potentially malicious code.)
Any information you can provide would be helpful so we can guide our students on how to submit HTML files successfully.
Best wishes,
Hermien

Hi Hermien,
Thank you for reaching out with your question.
Based on the information you provided, I would suggest advising students to submit their HTML files within a ZIP file. This approach should preserve all original content, including any embedded <style> or <input> elements
If the same issue still occurs, then I would suggest reaching out to our Helpdesk to open a support case for further investigation.
I hope this helps!
Regards,
John
