Steps to reproduce

1. In the Admin, edit the description of an Issue Type to have an apostrophe in it.
2. Add the Issue Statistics gadget to the dashboard.
3. Configure the gadget's Statistic Type to be 'Issue Type'.

Outcome

• On IE8 the name of the Issue Type with the description containing an apostrophe (') will not be visible.
• On Firefox, hovering the mouse over the Issue Type name will pop up its description truncated at the point of the apostrophe.

Expected Outcome:

• The Issue Type name should be visible in IE and holding the mouse over the Issue Type should show its description in full.

This also affects the 'Priority' field and probably all others that add a 'title' attribute to the link.

Workaround

• Remove apostrophes from the descriptions of the affected issue fields.
