I have a Perl script that creates HTML pages using AppleScript from iPhoto, and to save performing any character conversions I generate my pages with a
tag so that curly quotes, ellipses and so on will show up properly when the page is rendered.
However, the current OmniWeb 5.5 beta doesn't render any of those characters -- so a page containing 'it’s' will render as 'its' and make me look like a fool who can't spell. :)
By comparison, the current (10.4.7) Safari does render these characters as expected.
(The workaround, obviously, is to improve my script so it turns these characters into
and so on, thereby avoiding character set issues altogether.)
