Re: gnumeric bug in HTML export: '&' not escaped

[Ian_Stewart Notes airtouch com]

This is probably a very silly question, but why is GNOME using Bugzilla (which I
have found to be an extremely non-intuitive interface) instead of gnatsweb?

P.S. I apologize for the jeopardy-style post.


 I am using Lotus Notes.  Pitty me

Fixed.  Thanks.

I've added (for import and export)
   &        &amp
   '        &apos
   "        &quot

We already had
   <        &lt

This code should really be using libxml for this sort of silliness.

bugzilla.gnome.org is now the correct place to send things.  The
transition should forward bugs from the original site but there have
been a few problems lately.
