Hi ArchivesSpace Users Group,

Should I report the following as a bug?

  *   Some applications, such as ArchivesSpace, will accept HTML tags in its text field. But, if you misspell "&", it will not render the data. In ArchivesSpace's case, it just says "something went wrong" on the user interface, a web page.
  *   Because it does not show as an error in the log file, this seemingly small error, which MS Edge, Chrome, and Firefox tolerate, becomes a hard to catch error.
