Has anyone come across this problem before?

The HMTL below looks ok in IE 6, but when you use print
preview or print the result is corrupted.

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML
4.0//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/strict.dtd">
<html>
<head>
<title>Test Page</title>
<META http-equiv="Content-Type"
content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1">
</head>
<body>
<form action="run.asp" method="get">
<div><input type="hidden" id="vName" name="vName"
value="`123name"></div>
<table border="1">
<tr><td align="center" colspan="2"><b>Invoice
Data</b></td></tr>
<tr><td>Document Class</td><td>Invoice</td></tr>
<tr><td>Vendor</td><td>&nbsp;`123name</td></tr>
<tr><td>Status</td><td>&nbsp;Good</td></tr>
<tr><td>Submit</td><td><input
type="submit"></td></tr>
</table>
</form>
</body>
</html>

The problem is due to the ` character in the vendor name
and in the hidden field. The data between the two `
characters is completely ignored when printing or using
print preview. I've tried using ` instead of ` but
the results are the same.

This looks like a problem with IE to me but I'm interested
in any ideas or work arounds.

Chris.
 
If you remove the !DOCTYPE tag does it work?

Did you try changing the VIEW/encoding?
