Bug description: copying a single quote from MS word causes form variable to disappear.
When copying a single quote from MS Word into a form field, with
Content-Type set as ISO-8859-1 will cause some random form variables to
disappear on the submission page. I haven't been able to find a pattern to
why this has happened. There are several pages where it happens
consistently, and some that it doesn't happen on. The quote gets encoded
as ’ when run through htmlspecialchars. Each page has several hidden
fields a couple text fields and text areas. I couldn't write a small
script to duplicate the problem.
