I don't understand... shouldn't all the apostrophes look like '

Oh, I copied it wrong. They look like /

The apostrophes you use in your comics?
But... those just end up as part of the image! How could they look any different to one person than to anyone else?

I think they're crazy.

All reviews or just certain reviews?

All of them, but I have since gotten an e-mail saying it might have been a false alarm so I wouldn't put too much work into looking. I just wanted to see if anyone else was seeing a problem.

ok, i've been meaning to post about this, and i see this thread... which may or may not be the same problem.

check out what i see on MOST of the reviews and writeups:

Kevin Gleason is the writer and artist on Retail Rage. He lives in Wisconsin, which doesn?t suck nearly as much as it sounds like?especially if you love cheese. He?d like to tell you more about himself, but he?s too busy watching Law & Order, Family Guy and That 70?s Show reruns.

There's a LOT Of stray "?"'s, which i am assuming to come from the use of apostrophes. i'm befuddled as to why that would be happening because a) usually it would be over-escaped and have " 's " everywhere, and b) PHP has 2 easy functions to handle apostrophes that you could use when going to and from the database: addslashes() and stripslashes().

like i said, this occurs on almost every review that i read, and some of the other various text throughout the site.

The ? problem was actually caused by doing the database dump from when we had to switch servers. It converted all of the ' to ?. I thought I had fixed most of them, but if they're still showing up, send me the links and I'll take a look at them.
