Rich text to HTML bug

[bugboybob]

Has anybody seen notes produce errors when converting rich text to HTML? It seems to only be a problem when the '£' character is used, and generally results in things being equated to something rubbish.

eg

with 'mike £' as the body, the HTML generated is...

<br><font size=3D3 face=3D&quot;Times New Roman&quot;><br>
<br>
mike =A3 </font>

Any help would be appreciated.

I was just browsing threads for a problem I'm having but will guess at what you are seeing...

It looks like when they convert the rich text to HTML they use Quoted Printable encoding which converts certain characters (e.g. non-printable ones) to sequence of '=' + <2 digit hex value>. You will notice that the literal '=' characters are converted to &quot;=3D&quot;.
