Important Wordpress 2.0 Bug Information

Public Service Announcement:

If you are using Wordpress 2.0 here’s an annoying bug to note. If you upload an image to the editor and use an apostrophe in the ‘Post Title’ or in the ‘Title’ of the image it breaks the little bit of Javascript code that gives you a popup menu when you click on an image. The main problem is that if you do this (as I did) all future posts and pages will also have the pop up menu disabled. Even if you delete the Post, Page or offending image your MYSQL database still records the post as having an apostrophe. I had to manually delete the apostrophe from the database. Not recommended for everyone.
