I recently noticed that sometimes flash gets a little crazy when trying to display certain characters, e.g. ampersand or percent sign. Here is link to a table with a bunch of ASCII and HTML char codes. In flash you will need to use %HEX to replace the chars in flash. For example use %26 to replace the & character. More common codes below:
| HTML | HTML | Flash | Character | Description |
! |
%21 |
! | Exclamation mark | |
" |
" |
%22 |
“ | Quotation mark |
# |
%23 |
# | Number sign | |
$ |
%24 |
$ | Dollar sign | |
% |
%25 |
% | Percent sign | |
& |
& |
%26 |
& | Ampersand |
' |
%27 |
‘ | Apostrophe |
