In search of a solution, I tried and write this line into local.php
$FmtPV['$Cleantitle'] = 'preg_replace("&(amp|#38);", "&", $Title)';
To my mind, this would set a $Cleantitle variable where ampersand in
$Title is properly rendered as "&".
Then, in the jumpbox definition I wrote
(:input jumpbox value="{=$PageUrl}" label="{=$Cleantitle}":)
Thus switching from label="{=$Title} to label="{=$Cleantitle}
Evidently I was wildly messing things, for I got a long list of errors:
Warning: preg_replace() [function.preg-replace]: No ending delimiter
'&' found in /web/htdocs/www.kirpi.it/home/wiki/pmwiki.php(651) :
eval()'d code on line 1
Failure.
I wish I was a programmer...
Anyway, I remember Pm writing, some time in the past, that Title has
some issues.
Has this "&" issue something to do with that?
Maybe the "silence" I hear about this thread is due to the fact that,
at the moment, there is no solution?
