PHP string issue
I am setting a value but it is being changed. Not sure why.
It is outputted as "×tamp_unix=#{timestamp_un ix}" instead of "×tamp_unix=#{timesta mp_unix}"
If I put something infront of "time" it is outputted correctly with the text in front. If I use str_replace to try to format it the way I want it reverts to the same issue.
$field .= '×tamp_unix=#{timestamp_unix}';

× is the character entity for the little X multiplication sign. It's working correctly. Please look at it in the browser's "view source" window and tell us what you see, thanks.

I will just wrap it in a text box. Was building a configuration system for one of our advertising systems. You identified the ASCII value and that is what was going on. I completely forgot about those. Sadly I thought the ASCII value had to end with the ; but I guess not.

FYI the wrapper did not work. The & solution did the trick.
