Keystroke recognition error...
When I try to type and quotation mark or an apostrophe into a post or a PM, Flyertalk shows it as { instead. Also, a forward slash is showing up as - instead. Both Outlook and Word do not do this, which indicates that it is not a mapping problem on my keyboard, but perhaps a keystroke recognition error here at Flyertalk.

Hi William,

I can't seem to duplicate this error. Am I correct in assuming this only recently started happening (I'm guessing you have probably used quotes and apostrophes at some point previously during your time here )?

Eventually you might probably hit 'Alt' and 'Shift' on your keyboard and switch to another keyboard layout.
