WazBeware of posting some amper varables
A bit of a warning.
Seems if you post ° you get the ° character.
Doesn't seem to need the semicolon to be included.
And it doesn't seem to care if its part of another word.
°ree becomes °ree
Also happens within the code tags.
° becomes °
°ree becomes °ree

WazPerhaps the new Focal Point won't do this.

Wep5622I suspect it kind of has to do that so that users of Internet Explorer see the same output as users of any other browser. IE happily turns a string like that into an entity, even if there is no semi-colon (just like these forums do).
Sketch my surprise while debugging a generated URL that contained parameters involving amplitudes that seemingly had incomplete parameter names...
So, while focal point might address the issue in some future release, IE is still a point in the ointment.
