I set some page breaks in an article… if the article page break title/alt contains an ‘&’ (ampersand)… it is rendered as & in the page title… looks like this:

This Is My Awesome Article Title – The Article Title & A Page Break

Article Index:
– This Is My Awesome Article
– The Article Title & A Page break

note: the ampersand though it appears normal in the article index… is rendered as & in the page title

I tried editing in HTML source editor… however when I press update… the WYSIWYG editor converts it back to & … How can I prevent this from happening?

Give this a try:

[FONT=”Arial Black”]Goto: components/com_content/content.html.php[/FONT],

Replace the following line in function showCategories():


$row->name = htmlspecialchars( stripslashes( ampReplace( $row->name ) ), ENT_QUOTES );
with

$row->name = ampReplace( stripslashes( htmlspecialchars( $row->name, ENT_QUOTES ) ) );

Let me know if this works for you.
John.

Dear troy!

You open the file: templates/ja_seleni/html/com_content/article/default.php and find the following code at line 52
[PHP]<?php echo $this->escape(isset($this->article->page_title)?$this->article->page_title:$this->article->title); ?>[/PHP]

replace:
[PHP]<?php echo (isset($this->article->page_title)?$this->article->page_title:$this->article->title); ?>[/PHP]

Good luck
