Title: single quote/apostrophe shows double
Post by: ginahoy on November 19, 2004, 06:15:39 AM

Hi Wilson,
I just noticed that PGO incorrectly displays single quotes or apostrophes (') as double quotes ("), in the subject line.

For example,

What's best for 'wide field'

is displayed as:

What''s best for "wide field"

This doesn't happen in the message text. No biggie, but just thought you'd like to know. I'm running ver. 2.5.24

Well, the ASCII codes for single and double quote are similar and are not universally recognized. Because of this, some text proecessing software and parsers have routines that manipulate these codes (usually switch-selectable). That may or may not be the case here, but it may provide a clue...
