Annoying bug when editing forum FAQ
When ever I''m editing the forum FAQ all the apostrophes are doubled. This is quite annoying and I''m hoping that you could fix this somehow. If need be exchange them with the html character code & #39; '

I made some fixes which should hopefully end all of the reply count misreports. I checked up and saw that I changed the authorization level to delete posts up to only allow moderators (of their respective forums) and admins to delete posts. I set the level back down again.. let me know if it works for you.

Well, I can delete again. But you didn''t fix the real problem, I see that you did some changes but now just switch all the apostrophes to quote characters, which doesn''t really make it better. Now words like: doesn''t, isn''t, it''s, becomes: doesn"t, isn"t, it"s. This isn''t much better than when you doubled all the apostrophes.
As I do a little ASP/SQL programming myself at work I understand why you are doing these changes. May I suggest that you do this instead:
text = Replace(text, char(39), "'")

I ran in to the same problem with a project at work.
The error you probably made at first was that you forgot to exchange the double apostrophes to one when you moved the text from the database to the textarea in the form.
If you fix this you may disregard what I said earlier about using '
