I noticed node 587289 by acone. It's title in the Newest Node list is ' and its ilk'. But when I read it, I saw its true name was '  and its ilk'. In the Newest Node listing, the title's HTML code gets interpreted, but when displaying the node, it doesn't.

So here's a puzzle — is there a way that acone could have entered his title so that it would have appeared correctly in both listings?

    It was simply a bug in Newest Nodes that was introduced a couple of days ago and is now fixed (I was fixing it when I saw your node).

    I think people would understand  

    Would code tags work? Code tags do not appear to work in the title.
