Last week started out to be a strange week and it ended the same way, but…  all’s well that ends well!  Everything works out for good in the end!  I have one question though:  “When does this episode end?”

Here is my latest challenge.

When I use hyphens, quotes, etc. in my blog post titles they are replaced with crazy coding like ASCII Text.

This happened with WordPress 2.9.2 and now with WordPress 3.0.1. So it is NOT version specific.  It is also NOT theme specific.

After much investigation I did find one of my blogs that works correctly and it was suggested by Lisa Sabin-Wilson – Author of WordPress For Dummies 3.0 (@LisaSabinWilson on Twitter); and Cathy Perkins aka The WordPress Wizard (@WordPressWizard on Twitter) — two WordPress Gurus that this is/can be a database issue.

I’ve written my host and sent him the video below to demonstrate my issue and ask for his help and input!

As they say:  A picture speaks a thousand words, that’s why I’m including it here in case anyone else is or will be experiencing this issue in the future.

VIEWING NOTE:  In this case, since it is my computer screen… You might want to watch the video on YouTube where you can see it more clearly.  BELOW is the direct link to the YouTube.com version.
