"AND" symbol coming out as "&amp"

Dan40 · December 1st, 2006, 12:32 AM

Hi,

I was noticing that when I upload a file with an ampersand, "&", in the name of the file, the resulting file name and description that comes back from a search is "&amp". This doesn't look very clean. Is there any way to clear this up?

Thanks!
Dan

what version of the software are you using? url to install?

If you are using vB3 integration; we recently updated to 5.61 build which resolved this issue.

Sure thing, you can see an example here:

Examples:

Knight & Daye
Law & Order
Law & Order - Criminal Intent
Method & Red

How can one stop this from happening and display an "&" sign instead?

So does it only display like this on the search page?

If so this line in search.php

Code:

change to this
