Ok Folks.  I have one minor issue. But tough on us Irish people!
 
We use the RTE tool to format an e-newsletter.
 
When a person types an apostrophe into their RTE editor like the apostrophe in the word
 
O'Hara

When the e-newsletter is sent out the word O'Hara appears like this
 
O/Hara
 
So the apostrophe appears as a slash. 

Was there a fix to this we missed? Or is there something special that has to be placed in the initial code to cover apostrophes.

Thanks very much!

Gordon

The RTE passes the user input to your code as a quote ' mark, just like in this forum.

It will be the email component or your own code that creates the email that is placing / in the place of quote marks.
