    Hello,
    This is the code snippet: 

    $breadcrumbtrail = $breadcrumb->trail(' » ');
$breadcrumbexploded = explode(";", $breadcrumbtrail);
echo $breadcrumbexploded[0];
if ($breadcrumbexploded[0] == "&RAQUO") {
echo "true";
} else {
echo "false";
}
    Code (markup):
    That code returns the text "&RAQUOfalse" but it should return "&RAQUOtrue" since $breadcrumbexploded[0] == "&RAQUO". I can't figure out why it can't understand that $breadcrumbexploded[0] actuallt is &RAQUO.

    Best Regards

    I wonder why "&RAQUO" is in uppercase letters since it is in lowercase ones in the first line? But it seems that there is white space at the beginning of $breadcrumbexploded[0], so try:

    if (ltrim($breadcrumbexploded[0]) == "&RAQUO") {
    Code (markup):
