Help with parse_smileys and HTML entities

Adding a space was my first reaction also, though I was going to do it in the config file which would be a bit more work so I like your solution. I'll have to look through my user input and see if most people include a space first so I'm not breaking any of their conventions.

I was going to post this in the bug forum but after seeing that this CI forum software handles this well, I assumed there was a work around. Apparently it's just something in EE and not CI.

Anyone from Ellis Labs around that can let us know how it's working here?
