I have noticed this problem in both IE and Firefox. It drove me nuts thinking something was corrupting my posted data. Basically the scenario goes like this:
1. Enter article text
2. Insert images (photos) at the appropriate locations.
3. First image is named image-01.jpg
4. On pressing submit and checking article image-01.jpg has been renamed to image-0'.jpg !!!
Even if I go in and edit source before submitting the image is still renamed to image-0'.jpg. It appears to not corrupt images with a number greater than -01. Is the editor seeing the "-01" as something else and translating it? I know there are obvious workarounds, but starting my image sequences at -01 always seemed logical and simple enough to me.
Is this a known bug? If not, I'll post it with a few more details over at the bug reporting page.
Any suggestions, or a fix from a kind soul would be much appreciated. 
Cheers,
Graeme

RE: Strange image 'renaming' behaviour
However, I spent considerable time playing with the article that does display this problem, putting in non-existant images, getting rid of the path to the image, to ensure it wasn't too long, and even renaming an image simply to "n1.jpg" which was still renamed to "n'.jpg" ... still unexplained, and I don't really have the time, inclination, or knowledge of javascript to check through the code and see why this one message is so problematic. I will however strip back the article text/html and see if that fixes the problem as a workaround.
Other than that I have been starting my image sequences at xxx02.jpg and not having any problems. I would still like to hear if anyone else has observed this problem.
Cheers,

RE: Strange image 'renaming' behaviour
I also noticed what I would consider an excessive number of <span> and <font> tages ending up in the document. I also get <p> ... </p></ br> chucked in for good measure. I'm currently editing in Firefox, but I know the above mentioned 1 to ' replacement happens in IE also (on my home and work PC's).
FCKEditor is such a great package, it's just a shame about a few little glitches... I hope these can get ironed out soon.

This time a list of tournament results, with lots of 1st place getters ... now all 'st place getters. This is frustrating beyond belief!
RE: Strange image 'renaming' behaviour
Okay, big mistake, I've discovered it was my own ASP pages VBScript doing this, but I don't know why... where I was replacing Character Code 0145 (‘) with (') for some reason it was munching the 1's ... strange but true. Maybe some update that occured on the server around the time I installed the latest FCKEditor. Still doesn't explain why it was replaceing 1's on some articles and not on others... however now that it is 'fixed' (by removing that code) I'm happy to say it *isn't* FCKEditor (yay!) ... would still be nice not to have the excessive occurences of <span> and <font> though (which I'll strip out of the submitted articles anyway).
