Links - regular Usergroup - member (Normal member unchanged)
Was all fine until 5.0.1 and then lots apostrophe did not work. Links that were already in the directory, not new links. I have tried to edit to fix it, but still doesn't work.
i just spent 20 minutes baffled as to where an "example url field" could be on my site and how I could have accidentally filled it in to cause the error lol. Shows I need sleep.
& # 3 9 ; is what it's supposed to use, that's an HTML entity which means the same thing -- but you never see that in viewing the page, you see the result. Were you viewing the source??
Yeah thats fair enough, I have fixed it using the word replacement in admin, I cant leave it as it was for you to see bacause I have a lot of customers on the site this week.
To be honest I think it may be my own code, or the HTML header, not sure yet, I'll have a play around with it. I;m pretty certain now that it isnt the script at fault.

When a link submitter submits a links with an Apostrophe in it, it doesn't display as ' it displays as &# 39; (but without the space)
Is there a way to fix this?

Can't reproduce. Please give me an exact procedure, tell me what field to type in or what usergroup to use or whatever.

Hi Paul
Take a look at this...
validator.w3.org/check?uri=...%29&doctype=Inline&group=0
The first warning, do you think that is the cause?

I just fixed this, not an ideal fix, but it worked...
I used word censor and replaced ' with '
Strange, I wonder why it is using ' in the html?

No, it was on the actual page.
In the source it was... & amp ; # 39 ;

Well... if I can't see it and have no way to reproduce it I can't fix it.
