Some translations include html code in their strings (because of a migration from activeCollab?). ProjectPier escapes this strings and the code leaks to the user interface.

For example there is this Spanish translation:

'log add projectmessages' => ''%s' <strong>agregado</strong>',

On a first instance, %s is replaced by some string that may contain html, lets say “A&B”. Then ProjectPier scapes the resulting string and ends up like:

A&amp;B &lt;strong&gt;agregado&lt;/strong&gt;

And the end user-visible result is:

A&B <strong>agregado</strong>

I’ve attached a patch to this post that fixes this. This patch is a temporary solution for the problem, but a real solution would be filter the real content before it is inserted in the translated string. This is for ProjectPier v.0.8.0.3.
