    I’m still having this issue. It seemed to happen when I used ‘quick reply’ but not when using advanced. Just checking to see if this makes a difference.

    Still a problem for me in iPad with both apostrophes and quotation marks. The scenario is: Initial post may look OK. But any subsequent edit will cause the corruption of those characters.

    Does anyone know where the MSE website 'report a problem' link is? it's sure well hidden.

    I've only had a problem with my iPad. Windows devices don't seem to be affected at all.

    Edit: I!!!8217;ve just done the latest OS update on the iPad to see if it makes any difference.

    It doesn!!!8217;t!!

    Today I saw it happen with Firefox on Windows 7.

    Let's see what happens when I edit this post afterwards.

    [Edited]

    Hmm doesn't happen consistently.
    'how about quotes'
    "like this"
    Finally I!!!8217;ve edited using iPad
    And I!!!8217;m now trying this with Autocorrect disabled
