Hi,
I've just tried your example:
{code}
<!ENTITY Auml "Ä">
{code}
No, that's not the problem. He tried to enter:
{code}
<!ENTITY Auml "&#196;">
{code}
which was displayed as
<!ENTITY Auml "Ä">
and not as
<!ENTITY Auml "&#196;">
Which means that we do escape < and >, but no &. Do we want that? Is
it
something all users want and need? I'll be -1 for changing this, since
it will break non-UTF instances that need to print non-ISO-8859-1
symbols in a {code} block.
Sascha, you could double-escape, like in:
{code}
&lt;!ENTITY Auml &quot;&amp;#196;&quot;&gt;
{code}
I know it's more hard work, but it's a working workaround. > And it worked well:
