$ problem


Whenever I post an html story which include $, such as $12.99, the system loses some of the characters after the $ and I end up with 9. I have done a temporary work around by putting a space after the $, such ast $ 12.99 instead of $12.99, but I was wondering if there is a real fix. Any ideas.

My guess is you haven't upgraded to 1.3.6. We've addressed this problem there.---The reason people blame things on previous generations is that there's only one other choice.

I have a fresh install of 1.3.6 and I have the $ problem for the description of links.

It only seems to happen for submitted links (i.e. it's okay when the Admin enters the link description).

Can you submit that as a bug on the bug tracker, please?

bye, Dirk
