[Bug] Apostrophe in question labels displayed as ' in the form HTML page

[fpinto75015]

Steps to reproduce

1. Create a form with a question label containing
   an apostrophe, for example: "Qu'est-ce que"
2. Save the form
3. Open the form page (the shared link that
   respondents use to fill in the form)

Observed behavior
The apostrophe character is rendered as the HTML
entity ' directly visible in the question label
on the form page itself, for example:
"Qu'est-ce que"

Expected behavior
The plain apostrophe character ' should be displayed
in the question label, not its HTML entity equivalent.

Possible cause
User input is being HTML-escaped when saved, but the
escaping is not reversed when rendering the form page.
A call to html_entity_decode() or equivalent unescaping
seems to be missing on the output rendering side.

Impact
Question labels containing apostrophes or other
punctuation are displayed with raw HTML entities,
which is confusing for respondents and makes the
form look broken.

@fpinto75015 I can't reproduce this... Could you please add a screenshot or even better a screen recording?

Hi @Chartman123,

Thanks for looking into this. I'm adding a screenshot as requested.

To clarify the issue: the problem is not in the question title, which renders correctly, but in the aria-label attribute of the input field itself. When the question title contains an apostrophe (e.g. "Comment tu t'appelles ?"), it appears as the HTML entity ' inside the aria-label, instead of being decoded as a proper apostrophe character.

This means that screen readers and braille displays read out the raw entity string "t'appelles" rather than the intended "t'appelles", which makes the form label confusing and inaccessible.

This looks like an HTML entity encoding issue in the ARIA label generation — the value is being HTML-escaped when it shouldn't be, since aria-label is a plain text attribute and does not interpret HTML entities in all assistive technology implementations.

Hope the screenshot helps. Happy to provide further details if needed.
