Implement error messaging for when users input illegal special characters #86

Closed clairecleveland closed 1 year ago

clairecleveland commented 1 year ago

Certain characters like quotation marks can’t be used in state descriptions (or probably anywhere else). I don’t know if there’s a way that they can be enabled, or at least have the error message that explains certain character types not allowed.

As a side note, quotations may be included in some reference titles as well.

I think some sort of error message to explain the special characters limitation is probably safest rather than allowing special characters.

@clairecleveland You are the most familiar with this. Was this already added?

@aazaff @ecurrano Update: appears this has been fixed. I was able to add " ", °, ö. These symbols were accepted when hit submit and showed up in reports. Yay!
