How to display a grave accent in a textbox

Question

On a postback I'm setting the value of one of my textboxes to a grave accent. This is causing a bunch of the HTML that follows to be shown in the textbox instead of the grave accent. What am I doing wrong?

Answer 1

Are you using the HTML entity number or name instead of the actual grave accent character? http://www.w3schools.com/tags/ref_entities.asp

Answer 2

Use ` for your grave accent. That should solve your problem.
