Doc #72921 [NEW]: The characters #& are not correctly displayed in the used font "Fira Sans"

From: wibbing at frommo dot com Operating system: Windows 10 PHP version: Irrelevant Package: Documentation problem Bug Type: Documentation Problem Bug description:The characters #& are not correctly displayed in the used font "Fira Sans" Description: ------------ --- From manual page: http://www.php.net/function.escapeshellcmd --- In the last paragraph, the escaped characters are listed: #&;`|*?~<>^()[]{}$\ Unfortunately, this is a special ligature in the font "Fira Sans" and is rendered as a single, cursive & character. Excerpt from https://carrois.com/downloads/fira_4_1/Fira_4_1_Version_Report.rtf "version/build 4.100: _ re-introduce curly ampersand in Italic; also added it in Roman. Accessible via .ss03 OR type ‚ #& ’ (replacement via calt feature)" That means, the # character will not be displayed for modern browsers, leading to confusion if it is escaped. If you copy the characters it will be okay. To remedy this, simply change the order of the characters, e.g. &#;`|... works fine. -- Edit bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=72921&edit=1 -- Try a snapshot (PHP 5.4): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=72921&r=trysnapshot54 Try a snapshot (PHP 5.5): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=72921&r=trysnapshot55 Try a snapshot (trunk): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=72921&r=trysnapshottrunk Fixed in SVN: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=72921&r=fixed Fixed in release: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=72921&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=72921&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=72921&r=needscript Try newer version: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=72921&r=oldversion Not developer issue: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=72921&r=support Expected behavior: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=72921&r=notwrong Not enough info: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=72921&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=72921&r=submittedtwice register_globals: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=72921&r=globals PHP 4 support discontinued: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=72921&r=php4 Daylight Savings: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=72921&r=dst IIS Stability: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=72921&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=72921&r=gnused Floating point limitations: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=72921&r=float No Zend Extensions: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=72921&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=72921&r=mysqlcfg
