Wow. I am surpised at this one. I wonder if this is a bug which results in
the discrepancy or if this is intential behaviour!

Yes that is correct.

Is this the question? My thoughts would be that this should be encapsulated
within OODT somewhere and that it should not be necessary to escape
everything as you/we have been doing. This is extremely time consuming and
painful.

I escaped everything here
http://www.freeformatter.com/html-escape.html

and compared the strings here
http://text-compare.com/

The latter resource will verify that it is the single quote that is the
offending char here.
Thanks
