Ampersands don''t get displayed correctly in the title bar on Windows. This fixes it. Give me CVS access and I''ll fix it everywhere :-) In cmd/winfe/genchrom.cpp: void CGenericChrome::SetDocumentTitle(const char *lpszText) and void CGenericChrome::SetWindowTitle(const char *lpszText) (so why doesn''t one of these call the other?) should look like this: void CGenericChrome::SetWindowTitle(const char *lpszText) { m_csWindowTitle = lpszText; CString cs; cs = "Ben " + m_csDocTitle; if (!m_csDocTitle.IsEmpty()) { cs += " - "; } cs += m_csWindowTitle; #if 1 // Ben fix ''&'' in title char *buf=(char *)alloca(cs.GetLength()*2+1); int s,d; for(s=d=0 ; s < cs.GetLength() ; ++d,++s) { if(cs[s] == ''&'') buf[d++]=''&''; buf[d]=cs[s]; } buf[d]=''\0''; m_pParent->SetWindowText(buf); #else m_pParent->SetWindowText(cs); #endif }

I get ampersands just fine under windows 98, so I did not activate your fix. Is this an NT specific problem you are reporting? I checking in to avoid the code duplication of the functions you pointed out. Reopen this bug if you have a test case which exhibits the problem, or if this should by NT specific. thanks, garrett.

Old bug....old code base...marking Verified.
