Hi,

When users post comments, double quotes are converted to "

Single quotes work fine. Where is the mechanism that controls character conversion/preservation and how to fix this?

Thanks!!

This is the way of protection against XSS script attacks so it is not recommended to change this option.

The function, html_specialcharsis, which controls this property is in HTML_function file.

hmmm... you might be right but wouldnt it be a better approach to protect against a specific type of attack with any method other than mangling-up commonly used characters? :D
