Karl, we have been doing some work with the way chars are saved and
encoded to try and simplify the source files, and get better xhtml
compliance. It has been a rather major process.

Anyway, in short your session log value is now getting encoded when
the page markup loads and then that encoded value is getting passed to
the log page. To make matters worse, the log page itself can double
encode the < symbol and mess up things already on the page!
Fortunately, I think there is an easy fix:

engine.php line 1520, near the end of the BOLTlog function, add this first line:

        $source = str_replace(Array('&amp;', '&lt;', '&gt;'), Array('&', '<',
'>'), $source);
        BOLTsavepage($target, $source, '', false);
        return;
        }

It seems to fix things.

Cheers,
Dan
