Ticket #11311: 11311-2.patch

File 11311-2.patch, 809 bytes (added by jacklenox, 8 years ago)

I feel a bit hesitant sharing this, but here's a slight twist on Alex's original patch that seems to work for every case I can think of. It allows through ampersands that are surrounded by spaces. This seems to fit most use cases when people would want to use an ampersand in a title or body content. Any thoughts?
