  for some reason when I click this entry off my main page I get this address in Firefox.
  http://jischinger.wordpress.com/2009/07/02/obama-betrayal-syndrome%E2%80%8F/

  Are these strange characters at the end of the URL a word press issue or Firefox?
  Thanks

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  While I don’t know how they got there, they mean

  %E2 = â
  %80 = space
  %8F = space

  meaning something must have been added to the title when you typed…typo, perhaps? Could be a CopyAndPaste thing, or maybe WP simply screwed up when you saved your post…
  It is not a browser issue.

  Anyway, you can just go to Edit Post and delete them from the title permalink, using the edit under the title field.
