I cannot reproduce this. The attached survey does also not seem to match the screenshots. Please attach matching screenshots for the attached survey. Thank you.

On further investigation this seems to be a bug in PHP 5.3.3 . Try updating to a more recent version and let us know if the issue is resolved.

Attached another screenshot matching the attached .lss, the word "WORKKKKKK" becomes "WO KKKKKK" and is making me want some stir fry :)

Also these are on production servers so upgrading PHP isn't trivial, would have to do a full round of testing of the apps running against PHP on those servers etc. Is there a bug report against 5.3.3 you found which makes you think that is the issue?

Thanks Carsten, appreciate it!

The bug is in the PCRE library that is behind certain functions of 5.3.3.

See http://php.net/manual/en/pcre.installation.php
and
http://www.pcre.org/changelog.txt

where the changelog for the following PCRE version states

  1. Inside a character class, PCRE always treated \R and \X as literals,
    whereas Perl faults them if its -w option is set. I have changed PCRE so
    that it faults them when PCRE_EXTRA is set.

\R is what making the problem here (it is an identifier for Unicode line breaks)

But for sure we will only know if you update. It is not reproducable here, so it must be a non-LimeSurvey issue.

If you updated your PHP version and the issue is still there feel free to re-open this.
