    Hello Tom,
    I am using your WP-Plugin “simple-css”!
    Here is an example:

    --------- CSS START -------
/* REMARK */
.css1class {
    content: "Hello <- first world!";
	  margin-bottom: -40px
}
.css2class {
    content: "Hello second world!";
	  margin-bottom: -40px
}
--------- CSS END -------

    After klick the button “Save CSS” the Plugin shows the folowing Content:

    --------- CSS START -------
/* REMARK */
.css1class {
    content: "Hello 
--------- CSS END -------

    After Hello everything is deleted! ??
    CSS with “<-” kills content!
    Please check it yourself.
    I have checked it on 2 different systems with the same bad result.

    Best greetings from Germany!

    Hi there,

    What if you remove this part?: <-

    It’s possible that the function that sanitizes the CSS is getting tripped up by that.

    Hello Tom,

    thx for fast reply.
    If I remove the part <- everything is fine with your editor.
    It seemed to be a problem of sanitizing the CSS.

    Source: content: "Hello <- first world!";
    Result: content will be killed

    Source: content: 'Hello <- first world!';
    Result: content also will be killed

    Source only with CSS-remark-lines:

    /* REMARK1 */
/* REMARK2 with arrow = <- */
/* REMARK3 */
/* REMARK4 */

    Result after “Save CSS”:

    /* REMARK1 */
/* REMARK2 with arrow =

    Everything will be killed behind <- ??

    I have just testet it under the same conditions with a other WP-Plugin.
    “Simple Custom CSS” (Version: 4.0.1/Autor: John Regan, Danny Van Kooten):
    Under “Simple Custom CSS”-Editor there is no problem to save the arrow <- !

    But I don’t want to change the CSS-plugin.
    I’d like to use your CSS-plugin.
    You make a great job! Especially: Generatepress theme ??
    If possible correct the sanitizing ERROR in your CSS-plugin.

    Best greetings from north germany near Hamburg
    Yours Carsten
