htmltext mis-encodings

Hello All,

"set the htmlText of field" has odd results sometimes. Here's the
one's I've caught so far:

   replace "’" with "'" in tResult
   replace "‘" with "'" in tResult
   replace "—" with "—" in tResult
   replace "…" with "…" in tResult
   replace "£" with "£" in tResult
   replace "½" with "½" in tResult
   replace "¼" with "¼" in tResult

Problem is, there's sure to be (many?) more of these.

Is there a way to handle this problem once and for all? (Besides
bugging LC about a bug. This is a trivial bug, I think. And, besides,
I already reported 2-days ago a different htmlText problem, which LC
fixed within 24 hours-- wow!)

Cheers.
