htmlspecialchars() bug in blogger.com

Found a strange htmlspecialchars() bug in blogger.com

The title of my blog is <?php echo 'R. Rajesh Jeba Anbiah'; ?>, but blogger.com doesn't convert the html entities in the title when it spits out. Because of this bug, the title doesn't appear in my blog--browser just treats it as a broken html tag. This bug could have been fixed by using
htmlspecialchars(), if it's powered by PHP.

Also, noticed that this compose box eats any texts entered such.

I gonna report this bug.

Comments

Yes, lawrence krubner. They may be stripping html tags. But, the compose box is really buggy. If you switch between "Edit HTML", "Compose" and "Preview", sometimes some of your texts will vanish suddenly.

This htmlspecialchars() bug appears only in blog tittle/header; in all other places they're converting it to proper html entities.

Dr. A.N. Sreevatsan , ENT specialist located in Adyar, Chennai is one of the gems available in medicines. No assistants in his consulting room and he'd take at least 15mins for every patients. So far I have referred many and all are happy with his approach. Every wannabe doctor should visit him personally to understand his approach. I wish him to be more famous than now.

Spotify's Greenroom Vs. Clubhouse - Missing Text Chat and Other Impacts

We have Clubhouse clones from Twitter, Facebook, Reddit, and now Spotify. Unlike others, Spotify seems to target directly into the Clubhouse audience/members. It is extremely obvious inside Clubhouse as you can find many spammy clubs and rooms created to attract the Clubhouse users. Greenroom Vs. Clubhouse I was stumbled upon one such room Clubhouse influencers are jumping off to Greenroom? - All things Hollywood . Few takeaways from the room are: Text chat is not available in Clubhouse, whereas it is available in Greenroom. This is the most talked-about USP. The recording feature is not available in Clubhouse and the same is available in Greenroom. Spotify has opened up a creator fund for Greenroom creators in the USA. However, I think, there are better indirect monetization options available for Clubhouse users. Stream's chat component & million-dollar opportunity? As I tweeted , Clubhouse can quickly bring the text chat feature by using Stream's chat component . If they...
