Redmine

But they are working fine in comments. Also, the preview tab for the description field works also fine, so the html-encoding is probably done during save (or load?) time.

For example:

 <pre>blabla</pre> 

becomes

<pre>blabla</pre>

after saving, and opening for re-edit.

The problem appeared after upgrading to 4.0.6 from 2.4 (step-by-step of course, installing each major version).

I would first like to ask other 4.0 users if this bug exists for them, too.
