Character display issue
 
Front End Bug
This is unrelated to the new 'Like' feature on FT. I noticed that if I submit a post using a mobile browser, then FE may not properly show certain characters such as quotations and apostrophes. I think Back End does save the comment properly because if I edit my posts in question, then I do see things like quotations and apostrophes in their proper place.

Example:
1. Go to last page of the following UA thread: https://www.flyertalk.com/forum/unit...anges-158.html
2. Scroll up to post 2354 or 2351.

Result on Chrome 94.0.4606.81 (Mac OS): You'll notice weird spacing in places where quotations and apostrophes should be.
Result on Safari 15.0 (Mac OS) (Desktop full site): You won't notice any weird spacing. Instead, characters will simply be joined together. Ex: "They've" will appear as "Theyve". "else's" will appear as "elses".

Additional note: You won't notice the FE bug if you go to these posts using their direct link.

Are you posting it in the mobile skin or full site mode?

I was using FT's mobile view; desktop site was not enabled.
