how to exclude (tm) and (reg) ascii symbols from url sanitation

Submitted by atman on Tue, 2009-03-31 18:01 in

i have several product names that turned into

Brandtrade ProductName

from the original

Brand™ ProductName

Is it possible to either remove them totally from the URL output so that i can have

Brand ProductName

or make an exemption so that PT would parse it normally so that we can see the (tm) trademark ascii symbol on our browsers?

thanks

Hi atman,

The original value would contain ™ which is the HTML entity for the trademark symbol. The & and ; are stripped, so what I would do is add a Search and Replace filter to the Product Name field for that feed, search for "trade" (without the quotes) and replace with nothing...

Cheers,
David.
