HS 2.4.0.11 "Save Script" converts special characters

Post by DJF3 »

Hi,

Some of my scripts contain things like

Code: Select all

"
°
If I use the HomeSeer web interface to modify one (unrelated) parameter in this script and hit "Save script" it will CONVERT the codes above into the actual characters degree and quote

Is this a known bug or should I file it somewhere?

DJ

Hi,

Web pages uses html to describe how the page will look like. It uses markup codes to do that. Some character like " and & has a different meaning for html. But if you need to display a " on screen as text then you have a problem. One of the solutions to solve this it to write " in a different way like "

Hope this helps a bit

Well, that is the problem. My scripts already use " but when you save the script through the HS webinterface, HS replaces the " with "
