Trackback punctuation

My trackback punctuation looks like this:

resident Bush's victory... menacing-looking ruler -- stopped me at the door with a wag of his finger. "Sorry," he said. "No potty mouths allowed, I'm afraid."

How can I make it display properly? Thank you.

What do you mean with "trackback punctuation"? Where do you get this?

Hello Garvin,

In the "trackbacks to this entry" screen. You can check this at my blog pst here: http://www.jeffblogworthy.com/index.php ... erica.html

I have several trackbacks, such as the one from "protein wisdom" where the formating is messed up as described. Thanks.

The Trackback texts are screwed up because of what the foreign blog sent to you. Their data encoded the HTML entities, but according to the Trackback Specifiction it doesn't say that the input data may be encoded. So the one who posted your trackback needs to adjust his software, it could be a bug.

Regards,
Garvin.
