I was reading through the help section to learn a bit about what power snooker was and noticed that a few characters weren't showing up correctly:

"The middle red is the PowerBall, which when potted counts for two points and triggers a two minute PowerPlay during which every ball potted counts double (here there is an accented a with two strange characters after it that the forum won't let post) if a shot is missed during a PowerPlay, the player's opponent inherits the remaining time."

same thing was happening in this bullet:

"The area behind the baulk line is the PowerZone (same accented a and characters) if the cue ball is struck from within the PowerZone, any colour potted counts for double and during a PowerPlay, quadruple."

Sorry if this has already been brought up (I did a quick little forum search), and it's obviously just a cosmetic thing I thought I would bring to attention. I'm using firefox at the moment, on google chrome the characters in question come up as the accented a and on IE it comes up the accented a along with two spaces afterwards.

Yea i just been on that too, two little boxes come up with what looks like numbers in there.

I am sure jack pot will have an explanation to this shortly

I actually had a similar problem to this before on one of my sites. I found that simply removing them and saving the page fixed it.

I think it's something to do with the character encoding.

Nick will most likely fix this when he reads this thread.

Thanks, that will be fixed next patch. For some reason some non-ascii characters on the help page got corrupted - I think one time the editor must have erroneously saved it in the incorrect character format.

Fixed.

Nick, there is a similar problem on the Newbie Modification section of the 'How are rankings calculated?' help page

Thanks, will fix next patch.
