When it is displayed online the text " appears instead. cmccreedy.3 is an example of this. The abstract and the data table attribute descriptions have problems with the display of ".

Jing has fixed this and it has been tested on the Dev. test server using both
Morpho and the Form.

This bug has been fixed (base on callie's testing). Here are somethings i did:
1)Use ServletOutputSteam to replace PrintWriter to send response of read and
query actions. So Java wouldn't encode the special characters.
2)Fix a bug in normalize method in MetacatUtil class - it will encode special
characters.
3)Fix a similar bug in normalize subroute in register-dataset.cgi.
