[Bug] Plain text ampersand + number sign = crash [sf#17] #39

Closed teambob closed 9 years ago

teambob commented 9 years ago

*Reported by anonymous on 2006-10-30 00:27 UTC** A plain text ampersand (and sign) followed immediately by a number sign, but not followed by numbers will cause 3.1.3 to crash with an Unknown Error message. (Apparently it's treating it as HTML code and is expecting ASCII number codes, but in this case the desired output is simply an ampersand followed by a number sign.)

A potential workaround: Replace the plain text ampersands with the ampersand HTML code and the crash shouldn't happen. (Since the & and # will be seperated.)

This bug is fixed in 3.1.4. Please let me know if it needs to be reopened.

The problem occured when converting FROM text. The text reader was copied from the html reader and this code was accidently left in.
