I noticed that search results of html pages that contain numeric character
references in hexadecimal (http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/charset.html#h-5.3),
which look like @ for example, are rendered wrongly. It seems that
either htdig or htsearch doesn't recognize such references and as a
consequence quotes the ampersand, so it generates (in the excerpt)
@
which is rendered by the browser as
@
instead of leaving it as @ which would give
@
This happens in an mhonarc email archive. Newer versions of mhonarc
encode the @ in email addresses as @ (this may depend on character
set conversions and such stuff.)
This is in both, htdig 3.1.6 and 3.2.0b5, sparc-sun-solaris2.8
Is there a configuration option to change this, is it a bug, or what?
(Off topic: does anybody know how to convince mhonarc not to encode @?)
