Ampersand doesn't render as a "&" #11

The Ampersand doesn't render as a "&" it renders as & I'll use "&" or "&" and it still renders incorrectly.

There's an ampersand in the Platforms menu in the example that looks okay: http://datatables.net/extras/thirdparty/ColumnFilterWidgets/DataTables/extras/ColumnFilterWidgets/. Can you link an example of one that renders incorrectly?

you'll see that it's the same issue in your datatables search (if you're using that). I believe this is because you're not using utf8_decode on your search vars.

Looks like I can't repeat the issue. But now working at a different company on different server no longer have an issue. I figure it TrueOsiris was right in that the utf8 - decodeing variable wasn't set properly for the page.
