Hi

Please show me what big image You have in mind. Ampersant & is a special HTML char so needs to decode in order to work correctly. Anyway when I see it I may be able to come up with an idea.

Thank you teitbite for your interest in matter. i insert an image hosted at imageshack (1024x768) that clearly explain what i'm saying.
In the title you can read "Orecchiette & Cavatelli" , but on mouse over you read "Orecchiette&Cavatelli". The page is reachable by clicking on "primi piatti" on the menu module on the right.

Any solution? Thanks a lot. Max.

Hi

Sorry for delay. I was away for weekend. I can see You've already found the place where this can be changed. While editing K2 items You are able to set a title and caption for main image. I believe title is the right one.

Ok, editing item in K2 is the right position. But if i fill as image title the " & " symbol, it give me in the front page the " & ". it seem as the special charater is not properly codified or interpreted. The K2 version i'm using is 2.5.5 by joomlaworks, may i need to upgrade?? maybe new version resolve this problem??

Hi

You should update, but I do not think it's gonna fix it. Unfortunately I have no idea how to help You, I was trying to copy this issue on my website and it always displays ok.

The only idea I have is to edit the file which is displaying it and change this sign using php function:

Code: Select all

str_replace( '&', '&', $string );


Well, may you say where to change or insert this code? i'm searching for your string, but i can't find it. Thanks a lot.

Hi

There is no such string, that was just an example and the file where captcha is being loaded should be located in /html/com_k2/templates/default/item.php . Unfortunately will need to see Your file to tell the exact line.
