I'm having a problem setting my address properly on a French site. The address includes the line, 2 Chemin de L'AA. L'AA is composed of L plus apostrophe plus AA, in case you are seeing this different. When I set L'AA in my address box on this site, it views as set, but when I validate the address on the site it comes back as L\'AA, which if you arn't seeing this, is L plus backslash plus apostrophe plus AA. This is really wierd.

Is the single quote the same as an apostrophe? If not, where do I find the apostrophe character.

Very interesting question to me.

I think it is a "right single quote".


I'm using KDE, and a gb keyboard layout, and have also tried out the ca layout, which I use a lot for french accented characters on my qwerty keyboard.

I found a canadian-french keyboard layout on Wikipedia.  I think the
character you want is the one next to the "right shift" key.

Hope that's useful ;)


Posting from the ancient FC2, and Kmail.

btw: I do have other Fedora versions installed, and used up to F8, but FC2 is an old faithfull, and plods along on this machine, with virtually no problems, apart from the mouse pointer freezing on the odd occasion.

Thanks for any suggestions.

Nigel.
