SRF Exhibit format cannot cope with & % $ £ etc in page titles

Description:
It looks like the SRF Exhibit format can only cope with page titles with a-z, A-Z and 0-9 in them. Other characters s like & £ $ @ etc stop you being able to open articles - when you click on the page name in the result set and nothing happens, the page does not open. The screen just refreshes showing the Exhibit result set again.

Example:

Page name = "North & East London" - Page is listed in result set, but when you click on it nothing happens. The screen just refreshes showing the Exhibit result set again.

If the page is renamed "North and East London" then it can be opened from the exhibit result set. This is just masking the issue though and users cannot be expected to only use a-z A-Z and 0-9 in page titles.

This pretty much makes the Exhibit format useless. These type of characters are very common character in English, let alone French and German etc.

Thanks
Neill.
