Well I’ve figured it out…Scott your suggestion to post an example made me stumble upon it. Turns out the issue is “smart quotes”. It’s actually documented elsewhere on this site…but I ignored it because I was not touching the quotes in the code. Turns out my Mac was making the quotes smart (curly) without me even touching them. I noticed in my code (that you just posted) that the quote after the 4 is curly and not straight (brought to mind the other topic here I had seen). I took my code into TextWrangler to format it and changed the " curly ’ " to a " straight ’ " and voila. Believe it or not that’s it. I’ve updated my example site to show the results. Thanks for the help all.
For others…here is the other thread that discusses it.
