The "current status" text field strips out some forms of punctuation, most noticeably the apostrophes. No other text box or text field on the site does this; presumably they all escape characters appropriately.
Can the "current status" box be modified to behave correctly, please? The lack of apostrophes grates every time, and I have to drop an rsquo instead! |

"But what does 'drop an rsquo' mean?"
Sorry, webspeak. rsquo is the HTML code for a right single quote. It's not *technically* what I do, but whoever writes the code will understand! 
For more than you'd ever care to read on such glyphs, see: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quotation_mark_glyphs |

See, we can learn so much from each other on Fab, and not just about sex LOL
I've learned a lot about 'glyphs' from the wiki website you quote, and it appears that things have changed (without me noticing!) since I started to read. I hope I can still read a novel without thinking 'that's an lsquo in HTML'!
Maybe one day, I'll catch up with this txt spk that the kids all do nowadays LOL. Then again, maybe not LOL |
