Comment (by spherman):

 I agree that using quotes is pretty standard today, but I am guessing that
 there are a lot of sites out there with this issue that don't even know
 it.  I only found it because one of my customers complained.  It worked
 one day and then it did not work the next.

 Updates should enhance a user's experience, not break their sites.

 As I mentioned, I fixed all my sites already, but I am happy to work with
 you to see if we can fix the problem so that others can benefit from it.
