    <summary type="html">It sounds like his name is being escaped twice (for XSS reasons). What version are you using?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I think this is fixed in the latest release.</summary>

    <summary type="html">We have a user with an apostrophe in his user name.  His name on the dock is displayed with $#039; instead of the apostrophe.  Viewing source shows that it is converting the ampersand so it has this: &amp;amp;amp;#039;  Is there a way around this?</summary>
