    Data to be rendered within a hover tooltip in the report was
    not encoded for HTML display so that double quote characters
    could be properly displayed.
    

Problem conclusion

  • Statements to encode data for HTML display were added so that
    a report hover tooltip can display double quote characters
    properly.
