This might be an ugly way of solving it, but I replaced

$mandatoryTip .= "
\n".sprintf($LEM->gT("If you choose '%s' you must provide a description."), $othertext);

with

$mandatoryTip .= "
\n".html_entity_decode(sprintf($LEM->gT("If you choose '%s' you must provide a description."), $othertext));

in application\helpers\expressions\em_manager_helper.php

Hello,

Can you try with : http://git.io/fvhAXw

See the 2 picture:
Arabic are already translated
French are untranslated
(please put resolved if it's OK)

Fixed issue: 06646 : HTML entities shown when answering survey and not filling a mandatory Multiple choice questions

https://github.com/LimeSurvey/LimeSurvey/commit/8e872cf2e6f25782aca9af44bdd62fcc96bbdcbb

Sorry for my mistake, i look only for single question type (with other_comment_mandatory)

New version 2.00+ build 121005 released.

Issue also present in 1.92 http://www.limesurvey.org/en/forum/design-issues/84862-html-entities-showing-on-error-message

Considering the amount of fixes still going on for 2.0 branch, please consider updating 1.92 (what i did was in qanda.php apply the html_enitity_decode). If not updating, maybe a patched qanda.php attached to this bug might be helpful?

Memno : maybe you're right, but before, we add to look at all important bug for 192 :).

Denis

If you could attached a fixed file for 1.92, that would be great.
In general I think that 2.0 is stable enough to upgrade now.
