This must be a simple fix... otherwise Tidy is useless. Starting with this:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 3.2//EN"> <html> <head> <title></title> </head> <body> <P>Santa–Claus</P> </body> </html> When I do Tidy the – is replaced by an en dash, which sometimes displays correctly and sometimes doesn't. I want to keep – as it is. How do I do that with Tidy?
