Literals in story title excessively converted to quote, lt, gt, and amp The following were performed on the dev server: dev.soylentnews.org 1.) Clicked on submit story 2.) Selected topic "Slash" 3.) Entered story title: BEGIN quote: " ampersand: & lessthan: < greaterthan: > END 4.) Entered the same text within ECODE tags as the story text 5.) Used default "Plain Old Text" as Submission format 6.) Clicked on "Preview Story" pushbutton. 7.) Saw story title updated where each of the four punctuation characters were replaced by named character entities. [ Note: repeated pressing of the "Preview" pushbutton causes the ampersand character to be repeatedly dereferenced, e.g. as &amp;amp;amp; ] 8.) Clicked on submit pushbutton. 9.)
