Description Ernie 2013-02-07 08:49:49 UTC
When creating pages that have a category with an ampersand in the name:

  [[category:IE&Java]]

and then trying to list the content:

  <DPL>category=IE&Java</DPL>

will result in:

  Extension:DynamicPageList (DPL), version 2.01 : Warning: No results.

Changing the name to 'IE and Java' will fix the problem. Since ampersand is valid in category names, DPL should be able to handle it.

I assume this refers to http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:DynamicPageList_%28third-party%29 so putting it back to DynamicPageList2. Sorry, got misled by http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:DynamicPageList2

Just to be clear: this relates to version 2.01 of https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:DynamicPageList_(third-party)
