Yet again a backslash annoyance has been detected.
If somebody puts a non URL character in their name (Such as "'") then it will be backslashed under the profile owner section in the sidebar. This happens always, except when pressing the profile link where everything is ok!!!!!!
I've looked at this, and can't find the bug easily, I checked the newest elgg code, and it seems like they have found the bug already and rectified it.
I think this is yet another incentive to upgrade the code base…
