Hey, I'm having a bit of trouble figuring out some encoding details. I'm using Velocity on a site, and I've got a string with some double quote characters in it: ".
If I send this string to velocity in simply a single variable, say, $testString, then these quote characters come through completely raw (they're not encoded into "). However, if this string is part of a Java object, and I send them to velocity via the object the " characters are encoded to " So if I had: String testString = "\"this string has some \" characters"; testObject.someString = "\"this string has some \" characters"; And I put them into velocity, in the same place in the template: testString: $testString <br> testObject.someString: $testObject.someString Then in the HTML generated I get this: "this string has some " characters "this string has some " characters Is there a reason why this would happen in such a way? And if so, are there any docs on this stuff? I've looked in the user guide but am no more clueful. I did browse a few months of mailing list archives but couldn't find a search function.
