 * str_replace(‘&’,’%26′,__(‘Myregword<small><sup>®</sup></small>’,’mandigo’)
 * I got this problem in the mandigo theme, I want after this word:
 * Myregword® > but in the theme I use, the & string will be replaced with %26. 
   My question is, is there a work around?
 * I don’t know exactly why that string replace is in sidebar.php
 * Unfortunatly the mail of the author doesn’t work, so I ask my question here. 
   Is there a workaround this one?
 * I’m no phpprogrammer, I can read code and make minor changes but I don’t want
   to screw my blog by changing something I don’t know about.
 * Thanks.
