Hey,

I've had this problem on many releases. I'm now using 1.3 and if i have a menu called "Products & Solutions" the page wont validate because it doesn't escape it as "&". I have to set the page title to "Products and Solutions" and the menu text to "Products & Solutions"

Not a huge thing but thought i'd mention it..

hmm,

that's strange. I swear when i tred to validate the pages with "&" in the menu i got loads of errors telling me i hadn't escaped it.  I even verified it by checking the source. But seems it's working now  ???

But as long as we're talking validation. I'm getting a warning on my search field that i don't really see what's causing.
