Comma and Colon characters in Dynamic Drop Down action

tolgaozel 07 Mar, 2013
I am linking two drop downs using Dynamic Drop Down action. My problem is that I cannot escape , or : characters in the field values. I have these lines in Extra options extension box:

Hi tolgaozel,

Have you tried using HTML entities?

I did. Interestingly, it doesn't work on the front end (it shows as it is ,) but when I go back to back end, I see that they are replaced by commas and colons.

Hi tolgaozel,

Oh, it was worth a try.

I can only suggest not using commas or colons in the text then, sorry.
