    Hello,

    Ran into an interesting problem, we are getting ready to relaunch our site and have been copying content over from our current CMS. EE does not properly parse double quotes (”) used in HTML tags we need to use single quotes (’). i.e.

    Someplace

    gets parsed as

    <a >

    and the rest on the content get truncated.

    I am allowing HTML and the formatting is set to XHTML; is this a correct behavior or I’m i missing a setting/configuration somewhere? Thanks for the help.

    EE shouldn’t touch your HTML code, and you can certainly work with double quotes, I know I do (and prefer it that way). Just make sure you aren’t using typographical aka fancy / curly quotes.
