Description Hans de Goede 2007-04-06 19:07:28 UTC 
When you open a page with &xx; chars in the title, these chars are shown as &xx;
in the window titlenbars, instead of the character the &xx; represents.

Example URL:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=184075
Comment 1 Christopher Aillon 2007-04-07 01:52:27 UTC 
Look at the source of the page.

    <title>Bug 184075: Cannot undo &amp;quot;Automatically save
changes...&amp;quot; option cleanly.</title>

We're doing exactly what the HTML source says.  There's an &amp; which we render
as & and then quot; following it.

You probably want to file this against bugzilla.
Comment 2 Hans de Goede 2007-08-12 20:16:07 UTC 
Changing summary, hoping to get some attention for this annoying but probably
simple to fix bug, point your browser at:

To reproduce it.
