Description
Two bugs with apostrophes and image uploading.
I signalled the first one in the translation page of the codex. One must keep from using apostrophes for the translation of image uploading related stuff otherwise the attachment popup menu won't show up.
Second bug (related): if an image has a name or description with an apostrophe in it, attachment the pop-up menu will not show up. This is a serious bug since there is no way to change the name/description of an attachment after it has been uploaded.
Both bugs are probably easy to fix. Good luck!
The easiest workaround for the moment is to remove the line include('edit-attachment-form.php'); (which is wrong anyway since this file doesn't exist) in wp-admin/post.php and replace it by include('edit-form-advanced.php'); and then remove the apostrophes in the name/description of the attachment by manually giving the id of the attachment in the address: http://yourblog.com/wp-admin/post.php?action=edit&post=85 (where 85 is the guessed number of the attachment).
