Description

Hi,

it seems wt escapes ampersand when rendering WComboBox.

E.g.: the result is "±1" instead of "±1" .

HTML supports using entities inside

There is a JavaScript issue with ampersand which can be avoided using Unicode (more info at StackOverflow).

regards,

Jan

Hey,

Indeed the text is interpreted literally, but unicode text should be fully supported. As always, caveats apply when using unicode in C++03: either you manually specify the byte-sequence for the UTF-8 encoding of the unicode character, or you store the text in a message resource bundle.

(for ±, this is WString::fromUTF8("\xc2\xb1"))

Regards,

koen
