[blocks.serializers] XHTMLEncoder, ' and Internet Explorer

[Andreas Hartmann]

Hi Cocoon developers,

more info about the problem:

Short description:

The XMLEncoder encodes ' as '
This behaviour is inherited by the XHTMLEncoder, but
overridden by the HTMLEncoder.

MS Internet Explorer does not expand the ' entity but
shows the string "'" instead on the web page.
That's why the XHTMLSerializer is not compatible with IE.

Would it be useful to add the special treatment of the
' character to the XHTMLSerializer too? Or should I rather
use my own serializer class?

Thanks in advance,
-- Andreas
