How do I keep my apostrophes in my blog on MySpace?

Question

So, I cut and paste my blog into the myspace blog window, but once I post/preview the blog all of the apostrophes vanish. Do I need to use another font? If so, which one?
Thanks

Answer 1

Sometimes apostrophes will disappear or turn into question marks when you copy and paste text onto the Internet. This is because certain typing programs use a thing called "smart quotes".

In order to fix this, you'll need to disable smart quotes in the word program you are copying and pasting from. Note: You need to do this BEFORE typing a document. It will not fix text you have already typed.

To learn how to do this in Microsoft Word, Word Perfect, Appleworks and other programs, click the source link.

Another option, is you can start using "Wordpad" to type your blog. This program comes standard with Windows. When you copy and paste from this program the apostrophes will automatically stay in place.

Hope this helps.

If you're using HTML coding within the site, use the Decimal code for the apostrophe. (I tried placing them here, but they won't show up) Check out the website below for more information.
