How to escape colon : in select field label?

    I want a new user to register their timezone when registering. I’ll use a select field with labels and different values. The separate values format should be like label:value, but this causes issues for me, because in the time it uses a colon (:) and so it thinks the label stops after (GMT-12 and value starts at 00) International… etc

    E.g:
    (GMT-12:00) International Date Line West:Etc/GMT+12
    (GMT-11:00) American Samoa:Pacific/Pago_Pago
    (GMT-11:00) Midway Island:Pacific/Midway

    Is there any way to escape the first colon?

    I figured it out. In the labels you’ll need to replace a colon : with HTML code & #58

    Remove the space between & and #. I can’t do that here because then it will just show a colon.

    It seem to do the trick, but when I change something in the form and save it all values are messed up again and cut off after the first colon.

    Anybody from the staff has an answer on how to fix this?

    Hello,

    I have checked the issue at our local server and found that : (colon) is a separator for dropdown, radio and checkbox field option which refer to label:value, and therefore it is not showing complete. 

    However this issue will be fixed in future releases.

    Thanks
