    Single quote is getting removed from the drop down list

    I have a dropdown with list items as below

     

    • If the value isn't quoted it returns the value
    • I can't go there
    • You haven't changed a bit
    The list appears fine in the dropdownlist. But when i select an item "If the value isn't quoted it returns the value" it displays the text without the single quote. is there any workaround for this in umbraco

    Hi Lakshmikanth and welcome to our :)

    Could you perhaps post a screendump of the issue above? And could you also please let us know the exact version of Umbraco that you're using?

    Looking forward to hearing from you.

    Thanks for your response

    Version is v 4.11.1 

    List of items are as below

    • If the value isn't quoted it returns the value
    • I can't go there
    • You haven't changed a bit
    • Some other text

    Content will appear same as above, there is no issue with that.

    But when i select the item "I can't go there". It will be selected in dropdown and shown as "I cant go there" single quote is removed from here. But the dropdown list items remains correct

    In above screen, "I can't go there" is shown with single quote

    after selection single quote is removed from "I cant go there"

    Aaaah, I see...Hmm that's a weird one...but it's seems like it's a bug. Don' think it's anything HQ is going to fix since it's on a 4.11 install though...

    But have you tried to see if you can escape the single quote by writing a text like....I can\'t go there for instance?

    Not sure it works, but worth the shot.

    Cheers, Jan

    Tried with escape sequence also. if I add "I can\'t go there" it will display after selection as "I cant go there". it is removing both backward slash and single quote.

    Ok, then I can't think of anything else to try. It's a bug in the core for sure.

    Don't know if it's possible to upgrade to a newer version of Umbraco perhaps? And before doing so it's of course a good idea to make a test and see if it happens in the desired version as well.

    You could try and see if it happens in 4.11.10 for instance http://our.umbraco.org/contribute/releases/41110/

    Cheers, Jan
