Odd Problem with HTML Editor in Assignment Module

I have a strange problem that only appears in the assignment module. Whenever I attempt to insert in HTML into the WYSIWYG editor, whether that be bold, italics, text color, or links, the HTML does not display correctly once I save. Everything looks great in the editor, but not after I save.

For example, lets say I edit the description of an assignment to ad some bold text. In the HTML Editor I see:

The bold text

After saving, the assignment page displays:

The <span style="font-weight: bold;">bold</span><br /> text

After further investigation, I looked at the source of the page. Characters such as < and " are being displayed as the following:

&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;bold&lt;/span&gt;

Any ideas?

What browser and browser version are you using? I wonder if it doesn't fully support the HTML editor?

The only way I can replicate that is to actually past the HTML code in the WYSIWYG editor instead of the code view.
