I have a few issues and just wondering how to correct them.
-
I have data displaying in a list, but it’s not displaying “WYSIWYG.” I have “It’s A New Day” but it displays the ’ in it’s as &8217 and a semi colon.
-
I am fetching JSON data and in the string, it has a p tag and that tag is displaying in the result display. I don’t want to show the tags, just text.
any ‘weird’ symbols in your string can be interpeted different. so if you would like to plot “It’s A New Day” as a string you should add a \ symbol before the ’ symbol like so: ’ .
to not edit all your texts add add this, you can use REGEX (regular espression) to automaically do this on the fly.
Regex can also be used to manipulate a string with HTML code inside to replace/modify/remove those html tags.
This should solve both your issues at once…
