Free Republic's "Punctuation Script Problem" is Solved!
Jan. 18, 2016

Posted on 01/18/2016 6:31:59 PM PST by PROCON

Has anyone else noticed that the " and ' symbols that were plaguing our threads for so long are no longer present?

Woo-Hoo, Good Job to John Robinson and the Free Republic computer fix-it nerds!

Would you dare ask the Mods to edit your headline?

Nope. I just quoted a comment on another thread with the < i > and < / i > tags and his quotes came out messed up in that line.

Direct copy & paste of your so-called test;

Things do not appear to be fixed.

The system still doesn't like fancy curved (pronounced curve-ed) quotation marks.

BTW the test only works if you CUT AND PASTE something with those characters in it.

Here’s the real test:
Let’s see — testin’ and checkin’ if it’s “fixed.”

AND.... IT’S NOT FIXED.

AND your screenname contains some weird characters, impossible to duplicate from the keyboard. What’s up with that ?????
