I’m seeing the same problem with my blog:

The problem is manifesting itself both in the blog title and in individual posting titles.

Me too. Apart from that it’s the best blogging software I’ve ever seen
Folks,
I have a temporary fix for this problem: in b2template.functions.php the function the_title() round about line 352, change
echo convert_chars($before.$title.$after, ‘html’);
into
echo $before.$title.$after;
Matt, I think this problem stems from the speed up changes in the convert_chars function. We need to look at what this code is (or isn’t) doing.
Hope this helps,
Mike
I’ve tried this trick and it works well. There’s one problem left though, to make my page valid : the Euro character isn’t working. I mean, it displays OK, but the validator keeps yelling 🙁
I’ve changed the charset in index.php to be iso8859-15, but it doesn’t solve anything.
Thanks for the previous anyway, and WordPress is really great.
