#7  The problem is special characters in the copied browser text. First, I copy the text from the browser and paste it to a text editor (e.g. notepad). Then I search the text for a forward double quote, copy it to the clipboard and paste to the search for part of a change command. In notepad the change command is Ctrl+h. I insert the double quote character on my keyboard into the replace with part of the change command and then change all.

I repeat for the trailing double quote character, the long hyphen character, and the curly single quote character, replacing them with their keyboard equivalents.

If everyone would just speak English like everyone else, we wouldn't have this kind of problem.
