I messed up some html with a single quote.

I inserted a single quote in a post on accident and the MeFi code that normally would be the rest of the page (i.e. all the buttons and such) showed up in my preview textbox.

fuck. that didn't work. it autogenerated a link i had in my MeTa post.

anyway, i put a single quote in place of a double quote in a "a href" link and the code showed up.
