    &amp + < + > (cant explain!)

    Ive been noticing, when being rated, certain characters mess up the way a persons text is written. For example, if i wrote "Great post, short & sweet" it would come in as

    "Great post, short &amp sweet"

    Is this just a glitch, or is it me..?

    Its just you Jk.

    The thing is that the & probably gets translated to html, which is disabled, and then the html code for it comes out in your comment.

    Yes I've noticed that too. I don't know why it would be translated to html because we can write the characters < > & in a post fine
