Right, I assume the " substitution is in the html filter for that reason. " and ' are both ok to use -- ignoring this current trouble. If I use the xml filter that escapes both then I'm ok using either quote delimiter. Means I don't really have to think about which one I use in my templates. Although the url filter seems aimed at hrefs, perhaps it would be better for the <meta> tag as in my example?
