This is driving me crazy. I'm using V0.8.1 phpShop. I'm modifying the
package for a new website I've been contracted to build. Everything
has gone along swimmingly until I started adding some of the client's
products to the database.

The first product allowed the use of and unordered list for the item
by merely me adding <ul></ul> tags and styling them in the style
sheet. Cool. The page displays just as I wanted.

I added the next product, using the same approach. Mind you this was
within a couple of hours from adding the first. I used the same <ul></
ul> tags as before. However now the page displays the HTML code
(sample below):

<strong>Description:</strong>
<div class="browning">
<ul>
<li><span>Receiver</span> - Strong, lightweight aluminum alloy</li>
<li><span>Barrel</span> - Lightweight profile • Flat, ventilated
rib</li>
<li><span>Action</span> - Gas-operated autoloader • 3" and 3 1/2"
chamber models • New Power Drive Gas System reduces recoil and cycles
a wide range of loads</li>
<li><span>Stock</span> - Composite stock with close radius pistol
grip • Speed Lock Forearm • Textured gripping surfaces • Matte black
finish • Dura-Touch® Armor Coating</li>
<li><span>Features</span> - Vector Pro™ lengthened forcing cone •
Three Invector-Plus™ choke tubes • Inflex Technology recoil pad •
Lightning Trigger System • Magazine Cut-Off • Turnkey Magazine Plug</
li>
</ul>
</div>

What's wrong with this picture?

If it's not the wysiwyg thing :
In "Stock" and "Features" you use symbols (bullets and trademark). Did you use these in the other product's description too ?
