This article was previously published under Q311106



SYMPTOMS
Some characters within the Text property of a TextBox control may not be displayed correctly in specific versions of the GoAmerica Go.Web browser that is running on Rim BlackBerry or Palm Vx mobile devices. The following table lists the browser versions that are affected:



CAUSE
This behavior occurs because the Microsoft Mobile Internet Toolkit encodes characters with Hypertext Markup Language (HTML) and sends them to the requesting device. The GoAmerica Go.Web browsers that are discussed in this article do not decode the HTML-encoded strings; therefore, the HTML-encoded strings are displayed on the screen of the device in the encoded format.



STATUS
This behavior is by design.



Steps to Reproduce the Behavior
Add the following code to a mobile Web Form: &quot; /> The text shown in the GoAmerica Go.Web browsers that are discussed in this article display a text box with the following text: <> GoAmerica Go.Web browsers running on other devices decodes the text and displays it in the decoded format.
