hobelsbergem,
I was not able to reproduce your problem with a fresh install of the latest stable MantisBT release (1.2.19 at the moment).

If you are running an older version, I recommend that you upgrade to the latest (download from [1]). If after doing so the problem persists, do not hesitate to reopen the issue and provide detailed step-by-step instructions to reproduce the issue; the following additional information may also be useful:

• Exact version of MantisBT, PHP, Database, Web server, Browser and Operating System
• Relevant customizations (e.g. changes in config_inc.php, etc)
• Installed plugins or custom functions ?
• Was the MantisBT source code modified in any way ?

I'm not sure what you're talking about, using these characters obviously works fine since you've inserted them in this very issue's description...

The provided information is not sufficient to provide any help in resolving the issue. A complete and detailed description is required for the support team to get a clear understanding of the problem.

Please explain what you do, what are the results you expect to get and what you actually get.

Also provide detailed, step-by-step instructions to reproduce the issue; the additional information listed below may also be useful:

• Exact version of MantisBT, PHP, Database, Web server, Browser and Operating System
• Relevant customizations (e.g. changes in config_inc.php, etc)
• Installed plugins or custom functions ?

X-post :-)

You are right ... I was astonished that it worked in this bug :-)

We'll try to use the recommended version of mantis, hopefully everything works fine afterwards

hobelsbergem,

I am resolving this issue as "no change required".

Feel free to reopen the issue at a later time and provide the requested information if the issue is not fixed using version 1.2.19.
