& [html code mistake, do not translate] Explanation: To make the & (ampersand) symbol appear in html, you need to write the characters "&" "amp" and ";" altogether (I didn't want to write them altogether here because I'm not sure whether the page will only display an ampersand instead!). I would imagine that the author made a mistake writing the code and left a space between the ampersand and the word "amp". So, really it shouldn't be displayed like this, it should simply appear as "&". The ampersand, or &, is a special symbol in HTML. If you want to display it you have to put "&+amp+;". Some forum software automatically does this for you so you can type & and it replaces it with "&+amp+;". Some doesn't [sic] and if you want an & you have to type & "&+amp+;" yourself. It looks like someone's typed it when they don't need to. https://www.sheffieldforum.co.uk/showthread.php?t=472824 |
