Apostrophe not working in xml field

Hello,
I've been having some problems with apostrophe in xml fields. Whenever I use it the content is lost.
For example:
<link href='http://somesite.com'> doesn't work, and becomes:
<link href=''>

The same code using quotes work perfectly.

Ideas?

Thank you,

Ivan

I'm experiencing a similar problem in 3.1-1 where my quotation marks are all being converted to question marks (?). Is this a magic quotes issue? I couldn't find any similar posts in the forum...
thanks!
Ben

Make sure you aren't pasting content copied from a Microsoft Office product. The XML fields and some Web browsers don't recognize the curly quotes and apostrophes that MS products use in place of the straight variants.

It's not a problem with copy and paste from office (though I have experienced that problem too).
The problem occurs even when typing the text directly into the browser.
In fact, when i first noticed the problem i began using quotes instead. And the link worked. But whenever I edited the article, the system would replace the quotes for apostrophes automaticaly in the text field. So, if I just publish the article, the link would be lost. I then edited the kernel so that it would not use apostrophes when rebuilding the link tag.
This has made it possible for me to use the system, but I still have to avoid using apostrophes, which should not be the case.
