RE: Escaping single quote in DPL
I don't see the problem with issue #2. I added your replace workaround to the item template (since the #tad:dpl supports functions as arguments) and both the articles seem to work fine. Could you be more specific about the issue?

When I think of it, with the "ball" and "baseball" example, the includematch parameter and argument you posted in the thread should work on its own, so I guess I was just lucky with the solution. The /W addition would be useful of you had items like "ball" and "ballbase", where the "ball" string is at the beginning of the parameter value. Then the /W would indicate an empty char/new line etc. that's right after "ball". Is that the case in the 'live issue'? — Sovq 10:08, September 2, 2011 (UTC)


 * Not sure what you mean by "nasty workaround". I would however suggest using "suppresserrors=true" in the dpl query to avoid the "Extension:DynamicPageList (DPL), version 1.8.9 : WARNING: No results." errors, should they appear anywhere else. — Sovq 11:34, September 2, 2011 (UTC)


 * Hmm.. I guess I might have missed something but won't using  work? Look at the source of this message though - the characters have been replaced with their ASCII codes - nowiki tags still parse them — Sovq 12:35, September 2, 2011 (UTC)
