Form submit/action buttons with French characters - Forms Designer - Bug?

asked on December 2, 2021

Hi,

We have noticed a bug I think in the Forms Designer (FYI, this does not happen with the Classic Designer) with regards to the action buttons for a form. As you can see in the image below, I added a French character (é) to the Submit label: 

 

and this is what it does on the form when someone attempts to fill it out. It HTML encodes the special characters.

 

To make matters worst, when you submit the form, it throws this error:
One or more form fields contain illegal character combinations (e.g., "&# or '<' next to (a-z, /, ?, !)"). Please remove these characters before submitting the form. [LFF2111-RequestValidationException]

I just wanted to throw this out there as not really sure on how to file bugs for the application.
